GPS Edinburgh package SOLD OUT

[Suited_Jock]

Hi All,

Following on from my UKIPT Nottingham staking thread which I am grateful for all the interest
I am going to be playing the Genting Poker Series £100+9 side event and the £400+30 Day 1B of the main event on the 30th May / 1st of June. I’m not really one for adding markup to stakes so this will be at spot. I do not plan to re-enter so the % is based on one entry only.

This event is being held at my local casino which I visit frequently, I will have a decent amount of knowledge of how alot of the field will play and believe this can be useful.

I am looking to sell 25%( changed to 30%) of my action for the two events and this breaks down at

5% = £26.95
10%= £53.90

About me :

I have been playing for ten years mainly online but have experience in live MTT’s from £1k festival events right up to $8k buyin WPT’s. I have been an active member of the online communites during this time and already know alot of you from both online and live tournies.

2012 has been a bit of a comeback year for me After losing a large chunk of my bankroll when F** T*** closed and coupled with my first child being brought into the world both time and money have been a luxury for me and I took a long  break from poker.

However this year the poker bug has bitten hard and I have started playing again with some decent results both online and live at my local casino 2FT’s from 7 visits and up over 1400BB’s in live cash for 2012 ..

I have won satellites to both UKIPT’s this season which I played in Galway and Nottingham, where I unfortunately bust in the last level of day 1 in galway and 2nd last level in Nottingham.

Got it ya.

[Suited_Jock]

Hey guys,

I've ended up winning a seat into this event but it ended up being an added extra for busting Joe Beevers, with that I have to play as a "Genting Sponsored Player" meaning i'm only keeping 50% of myself.

Which puts me in a pretty bad spot as I don't really want to sell 80% of myself so I'm going to withdraw this request for staking.

I'm still going to play the £109 on thursday night on my own dime so you are welcome to keep that % if you want, but understand if you just want to leave it.

Let me know what you want and I'll ship you back the monies F4F

[jezza777]

How come you are trying to sat into an event you have sold equity in? Seems pretty bad form to me.

[Suited_Jock]

Not quite sure what your getting at Jezza, Didn't think I was doing anything sinister by playing sats to an event I was always intending on playing and had I won the satellite outright the percentages sold wouldn't have changed. I ended up getting lucky and winning a seat as an added promotion.

I've sent tikay and f4f a PM advising them of this too, think i am being completley transparent with this and if it turns out people choose not to stake me again then so be it.. As I mentioned in my original post, i don't have a huge roll but think I am +EV in an event like this hence why I was taking a shot at this even though it would be normally a bit rich for me.

[jezza777]

I may well be being oversensitive but it just seems wrong to ask for and get staked into an event and then pull the stake when you cop a satellite . It is unethical and rude.

[Suited_Jock]

I don't think this exact situation comes along too often..

If I just binked a satellite i would still be offering the stakes at the start of this thread.. the additional monies set aside would just go into my bankroll.

The seat I actually won is a promotional event meaning I play the event but only for 50% of myself.

TBH before entering the sat I didnt realise that the bounty seat was won in this way figured it was just a normal seat.. T&C's are here: http://www.gentingpoker.com/bonuses-promotions/GPS+Bounty+Sat/ if you don't understand what im talking bout.

I've been a member of blonde and lots of other forums for a many years and really resent being called unethical, rude or of "bad form", in an online poker world full of cheats and scammers I'd like to think my reputation is pretty good thx.

[Doobs]

I can't see anybody expecting suited jock to honour the staking deal in these particular circumstances. 

It is absolutely fine to try and sat in when staked.  If he'd won a standard seat then the staking deal clearly wouldn't have been cancelled.  As a regular staker, I can't say I'd be upset if somebody satted in.
 
It is more than a little off to come on here and have a go, this is clearly an unusual situation and can't see any staker wanting to force someone to honour the original deal.

I think offering tikay and fraser 5% or so each would be good for karma before the tourney. 

[FUN4FRASER]

I understand the situation so its no problem & I dont see it as giving back word ( Im sure Tikay will think the same  )

Ive sent you a pm as regards sending the money back so go and win it and Ill let you buy me a beer     

Good Luck

Fraser


PS   Thanks for the Good Post Doobs .

[tikay]

Morning.

I have replied to your PM.

I'm very happy to keep my stake in the sidey, & have sent you my Bank Details for refunding the stake in the Main Event.

I'm with Doobs & Fraser here, perhaps I am naive to the nuances involved, but I'm perfectly happy with the OP's stance, & wish him the vey best of luck.

I "write off" all my staking investments as soon as I make them, so technically, I'm in profit on this one now.....it will go in the sparsely populated "Returns" column now!
