Background: For a bit of a clue as to where this idea came from have a quick look at the following thread....
http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=43720.0Essentially this is a simple idea but is hugely +EV and has many many advantages.
I would be arranging a stake for a midget to be following Barry Neville around Dusk Til Dawn for one of the £300 Weekend's. Mikey the Midget will be dressed in a costume of the stakers choice. I'm very open to suggestions so please post on the thread with ideas, whether you would like to buy a piece or not.
I know what you're all thinking. Where's the return come from? I will reveal several ways in due course but here are a few.....
Blondepoker: Obviously the little fella will be wearing a blonde badge or two. DTD remains an area very uncluttered amongst other advertisers and in this way Blonde Poker will gain a huge exposure and benefit from very high levels of standout. In turn, the 300+ tournament players plus reams and reams of cash/smaller stakes tournament players that pass through DTD will see wee Mikey and not only be driven to Blonde Poker forum and live updates but in turn to the cardroom and hence, yet more revenue. More users also = more advertising revenue for Blonde. (Thank me later Tighty).
Stakers: As everyone knows Barry Neville is a very lucky man. He's a respected bloke about town and knows a lot of people. He gets good information on dog and horse tips quite often (as possibly a few of you may have seen from his threads?) but is just running bad at the moment (Sigh, variance is a bitch). As everyone also knows, midgets are the best lucky charms there are and with Mikey's aura around Barry for the whole weekend big Bazza's streak of run-like-usain-bolt is about to begin which is going to be very very lucrative for us all. gg Ladbrokes and co.
As a final benefit, I will be adding money onto the price of the stake, amount to be decided but not much, possibly £100-£200. 'A premium' I hear you cry? No no, a decided amount of money amongst the stakers will be used to put into Larry by lucky little Mikey and spun up into fortunes. Again, ridiculously +EV as you can see proof of in our Surf and Turf thread.
Please post your interest on this thread if you'd like a piece.
So far we have:
Myself.
Longy - 10%

I leave you with a few testimonials, just incase any of you have never hired a midget before.
