Well its the Brighton festival next week. My live results are excellent.
The last Brighton festival I chopped 3 events and took away £8500 although my online has gone tits up due to about 60 bad beats over 3 weeks. Only once was I behind!! Typical!

I'm looking for a backer for 3 events as below. The £50 rebuy £155 maximum needed £100event £320 maximum and £220 for the freezeout. I will give 55% of all winnings to my backer and will also write a trip report on the events played.

If you are interested in being my backer please email me or PM   .  Email address is available from my profile

Thrapton,

Care to expand on why you feel the OP is mad for asking for backers for ALL events in a festival?

I'd say it was more sensible and a better deal than just doing one event.

You look very confused - this is a friendly place, sit down and have a rest, and we'll help you understand Smiley

Heid, If I had the money to back someone in a £50 re-buy I would be playing it myself... (I do but thats another story).

I am confused as to why anyone would want to back such small stakes tournaments, if the player was a good winning player they would easily be able to pay the entry fees for all these tourneys themselves IMHO. Roll Eyes

Heid,

Good Publicity Huh?

Saying that you cant afford the buy-ins for £50 re-buys and £200 freze-outs, quite the opposite I'd say!

Nah for the backer, if they were a poker type firm Smiley

And possibly a nice little earner for an individual  - it's in some ways a nice way for the smallish investor who wants to take a chance?
