WSOP - Buy a Share

[ifm]

Wasnt calling him names just saying I have seen threads before with people taking the piss - if your not interested what the sense of posting? If you feel I'm not good enough to stake move on thats fine with me.. I dont expect purchases left right and centre as Im not a known name on the live circuit - I will be 1 day in the near future.

As it happens the person to which you refer is a hugely successful online player (a fish live though), his post may have been a little mischevious but not malicious.
I need to regurgitate this dictionary now!!!!!

If anyone is genuinely interested please PM me, Marty.

[Claw75]

too rich for me, but Good Luck out there!

[Dale]

I'll trade you 5% of you for 1% of me, plus a signed coopy of my avatar.

HOLLA !!!!!!!!!! 

[Royal Flush]

LOL you put up results, 5 are HU games, 1 is a sng and the only MTT is a 90 runner field where you came 3rd!

[Dale]

Wow you played and lost $5000 heads up match.
What sort of bankroll would you need for playing 5K HU games? I'd say 50 buy-ins as a less than conservative estimate.

Fair play to you for asking this.

But I feel it may be a long shot (at best)

I posted a similar thing about 2 yrs ago when I lost all of my online roll - and got slated for it (and probably rightly so)

Here is what I see,

You have won a WSOP seat, why sell shares? To me, 2 reasons.

1) You dont feel too confident and want some return for your SAT win
2) You have been running bad and dont have enough money to take with you to Vegas

Now both of these reasons are totally understandable, but neither of which will install much confidence in people buying a share in you.

My advice is (for what ever reason you are asking) is to try and swap %ages with other "unlknowns" when you get to Vegas.


An honest post as I see the situation, not meant to offend in anyway.

BTW GL in Vegas!!

[Robert HM]

Constructive post Mr M3

[M3boy]

I know Robert, we all live and learn, we all live and learn (Mostly the hard way!)

[Ironside]

anyone playing in the main event want to swap 20% with me all offers taken

i forgot to add i am very doubtful to be playing this as my passport hasnt arrived yet something to do with me forgetting to send my birth certificate and seemingly i was £3 short in the fee

[CelticGeezeer]

what is the meaning of life?

The meaning of life is 47.

PS Good luck Marty.

[Tractor]

Gl in Vegas,
Another idea may be to sell % to people you know/play with regularly in your local casino or home games.
They know how well you play and are more likely to want to back a friend.

Just a thought, and GL once again.

[ripple11]

 That sounds a great idea suggested by M3.....to swap % with others in Vegas.....5 horses are always better than 1 !

  to you and all the blondites in the big one

[AdamM]

sell shares with others at your local casino. if you have a reputation as a strong player with your regular live opponents then you should have no problem shifting some.

I take it you do play biggish buyin live events at least semi regularly?

ofcourse you do, but if not, family and friends, but I'm sure your live opponenets will be your best shot.
