Simon T WSOP PLO SOLD OUT / Main Event ( 12.5% left ) staking thread

[DTD-ACES]

Hi All

I will be travelling to Vegas on 29th June and intend to play the $10,000 PLO and $10,000 Main Event .

Last year i sold shares at 1.3 , this year i am offering shares for both events at 1.2.

I will sell up to 60 shares in the PLO and 70 in the Main Event.

1% in either event will cost either $120 / £80 / €90 or you can have 0.5% in both for $120 / £80 / €90.

As i have been staked here before most of you know my record. I was No 1 in PLO in Europe in 2004 and No 2 in 2005 , winning the Master Classics PLO in 2004 (220 runners) and finishing 2nd in 2005 ( 246 ) inbetween i came 5th in the $10,000 PLO at the WSOP . Since 2006 and my involvement at DTD i have rarely played , in 2008 i played 5 events finalling in 3 ( returning £14,000 to my stakers ) and most recently i split the €1000 PLO in Paris oficiallly finishing 4th for €7000 when i actually got €19,000 as we did a deal when i was chip leader.

Since 2001 i have made 23 PLO finals with 2 wins , 4 seconds and 2 thirds , while in No Limit siince 1996 i have made 30 finals with buy ins between £500 and £6000 with 10 top 3 places.

I have played the Main Event 9 times without cashing but with the new 30,000 starting stack and the fact that i will be fresh there is no reason why i wont be worth a punt.

All results can be found here  http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=r&n=232


As always i will provide detailed reports for each day i am in play.


Cheers

Hi Simon,

I just calculated that 0.50% of the main event (assuming a $10m first prize) is £50,000, hence I would be gutted if you binked it and I didn't back you.

Put me down for 0.50% of both please.

I'll take the same, please.

Can I stuck the funds onto the DTD software and send you it?

[GreekStein]
