I'm pretty sure 50/50 is standard after makeup, but might depend on the volume you can put in etc

its very stnd to start off with a lower than 50% profit share. I know deals like 30/70 with MU until you've won a bit with the view to increasing share with profit.

yes the deal is very close to that which i think is very reasonable...one of my problems is i have been approached by a few ppl not just one do u think i should offer them to all join a syndicate type or just take a deal with a single staker ??

If you've got multiple offers just play them off against each other - get the best deal you can.

make sure you factor in realistic value of any help/ coaching/ commitment as you do this...

worst case would be to get the best money deal from someone who can't improve your game at all imo.

some ppl who have approached me do not play poker so u think its better to take a worse deal but from a player rather than someon who has no idea of the game ?? deals r all roughly 65/35 to 75/25 with mu and i approximate 20 comps a month

Trust me you'll find it way way better being staked by someone who is experienced in poker.

20+ £100-£1000 live tourneys a month gonna be difficult and involve lots of travelling hotels food expenses. would these be included in any deals? This is a tough ask to do on any staking deal and earn enough to live unless u r a true hero. Good luck tho hope you get the deal that suits and fwiw I would think a deal with those who will give most support/coaching and least pressure would work best. GL

^^^^^
Are there actually 4 of these comps a week. Most wouldbe at weekends and not so much mid week IMO. Obv Palm beach first Monday of month springs to mind but not too much else on school nights

I know a red pro that was allowed to play any tourney he wanted but could not even cover the hotel travel expenses. Obv a whole different level but you can fly across Europe for a tank full of petrol these days.

i have drawn up a deal with somebody and it involves 13 comps at 3 differant festivals  in nov and one 1 day comp aswell obv some of theese comps could possibly overlap if finals are made in the 2 day comps...as for expenses etc i dont think it will be costing me too much tbh.
