Hey

Im Paul McTaggart and I am looking to sell 20% of my WSOP Main Event action at markup of 1.5, I may open some more up later but for now 20% is for sale.

I have been playing tournaments professionally for 3 years now, mostly online and mostly on the Euro sites.  Here is a link to my pocket 5's page which has a list of all my relevant screen names online

http://www.pocketfives.com/profiles/bobafett/

Although it shows totals won on each site and lists cashes, the site didnt track Ongame for the 1st 2 years I played, it doesnt track the 888.com skin I play on and it seems to miss a bunch of my Microgaming results so if you want to further investigate I would recommend running each name through OPR/Sharkscope for a better reflection of profit/ROI.

A link to my Hendon Mob is on the P5s page however here it is also

http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=r&n=100114

Recent additions include a deep run in UKIPT Nottingham finishing in 42nd and winning the Edinburgh Leg of the Genting Poker Series after chopping HU.  Also, since arriving in Vegas I have played 2 events and cashed in 23rd in my 1st one, the Venetian Deepstack $1k which has not been added to my HM page yet.

For anyone that doesnt know the Main Event (lol), its a $10k buy in event at the Rio with 3 starting days July 7th-9th (why 3 and not 4 now anyone?).  I will almost certainly be playing Day 1C on Monday 9th as I have tickets to go to the UFC event on Saturday 7th and dont want to have to worry about playing the Main the next day while Im there.  It is a 10 day event, will have a few thousand players and last year the winner got around $8m

I would prefer cash in Vegas however I will take Bank Transfers also.  Bank Transfers in ££ paid at xe.com rate at the time I look it up + 0.5%.  Please let me know which payment option you prefer and I can PM bank details if needed.  Minimum sale 1% and any payout will be based only on the tournament payout.  Any payouts in £ will be paid at the rate I receive when changing the money back if we cash.

1%-$150
2.5%-$375
5%-$750
10%-$1500
20%-$3000

I will also be trying to sell on Facebook and twitter but I will update the thread when % go on there.  All % sold on 1st come 1st served basis.  If I sell out I will do a reserve list as I probably will open up more action later depending on how things are going in the other events I play between now and then.

I think thats everything, any questions let me know.
Thanks
Paul

Have you played the main event at the WSOP before?

Have you ever played an event lasting more than 3 days before?

1.5 seems a very high markup, how can you justify it?

Everyone else is doing it so why not?

With all these 1.5 mark ups going on you have to wonder where all the 0.5 people are? Perhaps they can all afford to pay for themselves.

Marc Wright who by common consent is about the hottest online tournament on the planet and has had deep runs in an EPT and an Irish Open charged 1.4

Stu Rutter is one the best young players in the UK charged 1.1 (although it was part of a package)

Paul has 7 live cashes on his Hendon Mob and wants 1.5?

Just seems very high.

Paul's doing very well though - he's already sold 10%.

Caveat emptor and all that.

I understand this.

If the markup was, say, 1.2 I might be interested in buying.

He did say "any questions"?

Well, I asked some Smiley

I mean theres plenty of things wrong with these auctions that are goin on, but no one seems to wanna rock the boat and point it out- so in his defence again at least it's straightforward and clear what the price is

It's the main event, roughly 10x the size of the Irish open and with a better structure. Fett has a pretty good online record and a decent sized FT finish in the recent past. Doesn't seem excessive to me.

Dubai: what's wrong with the auctions?
