GUKPT Brighton

[Claw75]

OK blatant steal of George's steal of Kinboshi's proposal for DTD £300, which he stole from Celtic

I had a shot at online qualification tonight but fell just short finishing 6/46 with 3 seats and some dosh for 4th.  I'd still love to play though, so thought I'd take a stab here, although I know it's a long shot.  Anyway, there follows some more blatant plagiarism:

The Tournament

Brighton GUKPT £1000+60 main event on 15th-18th January 2009 (3 day event).

10,000 Chips, 1 hour clock

The Proposal

I'm asking for a 100% stake for 70% equity. 

In other words, I'm asking for £1060 (in 5% chunks) and in return stakers will get their share of 70% of any prize money I manage to win with stake returned first. Any additional prizes on top (grand final seat, champion of champions etc) will also be included so you'd get the same share in any subsequent tourneys.

Track Record

No track record at this level, but my recent live form has been good with two cashes at the recent Xmas Cracker festival in Luton (1st in the £150 and 9th in the £100) and a total of £6,500 prize money from 6 cashes in 9 £75-£150 buy in comps played over November and December.  Also finished just outside the money (17/148) in the new years day £200 D/C Freezeout at Walsall.

Please PM me or post on here if you're interested.

thanks!

gl claire. if i was minted id take the lot, im not but gl anyway.

the trend for 30% equity w no input is a little biased imo, i wounldnt consider staking unless i thought stakee had a significant edge (congrats i think u do over the 6 tournies iv player w you at luton in, iv seen u play and ur good, deffo top 10% luton) but i think is slightly undermining the risk taken on by the stakee in accordance with applicants with no pedigree or results in these kind of fields. Not meaning to deter potential applicants, but these fields are 70% pro, if you think u have an edge good luck to you. i think 20% for no outlay is more than fair w no pedigree. those amateurs that think they have an edge on pro fields, seriously, good luck to you.

Bollocks did I nick the proposal template from you.  I wrote mine without looking at any others - if it's similar to yours it's because great minds think alike.

GL luck with this Claire.

Alex: I know there are a lot of good players playing this tour but I've heard that the average player is very weak?

You just have to hope you get sat on a table with lots of satellite players!

I'd actually say the average table in a GUKPT main event is tremendously tough, especially now as it seems to be attracting more interest from overseas and the bigger UK players. The fact that Marc Goodwin won European Player of the Year from it, the champion of champions events and the week long side events are all making it a big draw for the pros. Id say that its getting to the point where there are more pros at an average GUKPT table than there is recreational players. The difference between a GUKPT and a GCBPT main event if phenomenal, the GCBPTs the average player is very bad, the GUKPTs Id say the average player is very good. Could be a credit crunch thing too, everything is a credit crunch thing these days.

Sorry to hijack the staking thread there Claire, good luck

You seem to think the UK circuit pro's are good, this is not the case.
