DTD £300 Deepstack - March 09

[byronkincaid]

I don't understand all this premium stuff, but all the MTT boys are into it so it must be cool. Would be interested if someone would make an attempt at a post along the lines of a good player in the £300 DTD, GUKPT, WSOP etc has an expected ROI of x% which means that it is fair for him/her to charge a y% premium cos surely many stakers have no clue as to what is fair or not.

perhaps could start off with if Phil Ivey was playing for example, and then we could gauge downwards from there (or upwards for people who think they are better than him)

So com that none of us stakees noticed this £70 premium. Guess we were excited at getting a piece of Maria

no disrespect to anyone on here who has asked for staking & pls call me a grumpy old man, but when i was hitting the circuit 5 or 6 years ago you sold 10% for 10%; it always struck me as fair.
the first i ever heard of selling with a small premium was the camel who sold some %s for the wsop main event at 1.2 a year or 2 back.
that seemed reasonable given his track record & the loction.

yeaahhh, guess i am feelin grumpy after all

Chuck up a staking thread at 1:1 grumps but warn me first, I'll be wanting to sell a kidney.

By the way, I just wanted to clarify that I have paid back (or very nearly paid back) the backers the difference from £400 to £330.  So no addition to the cost price but the mighty 7 will get a cut of 70% of the winnings, after their full stake back of course.  That is all.

Back to the boobs.

Don't think you had to answer to anyone Maria, we all knew too well it was genuine.  GL.. xx

Am i reading this right?

You are charging a not unreasonable but top end 1.43 on the buyin, fair enough.

Then you are also charging 1.2 when people are sending the funds?? Why is 10% £40?

1.71 is a bit ridic and abusing the good faith of blonde posters.

Really don't get why you would post that James. You can sell a product at whatever price you want. Buyers can accept or decline. Once the product has been purchased what use is it making all parties feel disillusioned with the arrangement? Do you stop people on BP's forecourt to tell them petrol is too expensive? Do you write to Fernando Torres to tell him he is paid too much? The fact the seller appears 100% genuine gives buyers a better crack at a profit than some staking opportunities that get posted on this forum imo. Some have suggested you post a model you see as standard. That would be a positive way to express your views on staking value. Even then, if someone chooses to deviate from that model what business is it of yours? Anyway, many would agree Maria is better looking than you so can sell shares in herself at a higher premium than you on that basis alone.

So if you were staking someone in a tourney you would expect 100% of any returns ?

For a 100% stake he would,but he quoted 10% for 10%
