The Staking Board, Auctions: Debate

[AndrewT]

Yeah, it was suggesting demand where there wasn't any - if someone is asking for staking on here I would expect that every bid is genuine and thus a reliable indicator of demand/progress of the staking.

On an unrelated side note, a chap used to put up occasional "optimistic" staking Threads, & there'd be no replies for days, not one, so he'd Post "nobody interested?"

Umm, self-evidently, no Sir.....

Yeah, I don't bother any more

Does any of this aution/ fixed price malarky make me a better buy for anyone?

Keys???

If I decided to throw in a couple of oranges and some foreignly bought 'tat' are we onto a winnar?

Throw in a Tikayesque scarf and you'll be on to a winner.

Afaik no one has been grimmed on either side of an auction and both sides have been happy with the investments.

Team eureka guys gave been selling out asking at 1.5 and selling out quickly but D Morgan struggled. Let the market decide at what price people sell and how quickly. There is a lot of love on here at the moment with plenty of people not using Roi as the main reason to invest. Why should members who contribute to the site not take advantage of it.

Those who think these high mark ups are bad for the poker economy are talking bollocks. Higher mark ups are better for those being staked and if they can get it then good for them. If you ain't prepared to put up then shut up. Let people pay extra if that's what they want to do. If you are right they will run out of money and you can go back to buying action at spot.

I wouldn't worry Jase, because if somebody were to create a poker web auction business there'd be no reason to use the Blonde staking thread for auctions and the prob goes away.

but of course the blonde staking board is free to use, plenty read it and are happy to be using it. Great resource, auctions or not :-)

So we can assume this is your last word on staking?

Lol. Yeah good point

[SuuPRlim]

Jason makes a good point.

People like Dan M for eg who puts a lot of effort into the PHA an the whole forum, I think someone like that would be perfectly justified in charging and extra point on BLONDE staking boards because he puts a lot of time in to the site which everyone benefits from. The outcome is the forum flourishes because excellent posters continue to contribute + in return everyone sacrifices a small bit of EV when buying.

Dan @1.6 is for sure better value than some that have sold at similar rates for the main anyway. Problem is he is trying to sell 40% which is tough to shift in a big buyin
