I have now updated schedule for admin following agreement from all stakersAs many of you know, I am currently in the middle of a short trip to SE Asia and Australia. It was always the intention to play the inaugural Wsop Apac - I love Melbourne and I arrive in there tomorrow to play a small schedule, Event One, non bracelet sides and grind a few sats...decided against just flicking $10k in main, which was Dubais advice.
I am due to leave 17th April for home, however Pokerstars Live have inconsiderately arrange the Macau Poker Cup festival for 18/4-28/4. It's a great looking schedule similar to a UKIPT and upon discovering this and posting on Facebook a number of heroes said "You must go, it's awful - even you could win old man"
About meI think most people know me here now...I'd say I am a slightly above average player, who runs good occasionally and has had some good online wins (historically) and good results from smallish sample size live in last couple of years. I also am very active on the staking board and have numerous financial transactions on here and am sure many would vouch for my integrity - including Tikay and Flushy who had a chunk of me at WPT Ireland last year.

http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=r&n=1644882012 was a weird year, back to work after a bad first five months of year on line. The year was good live, only played six events at £1000+ (Irish Open, WPT Ireland, 2x GUKPT and 2x WSOP) and final tabled two of them (unofficial final before Vinny is in WPT Ireland) took a horrendous day two beats at Irish Open, a solid day two GUKPT London and well, Vegas - like I always do. Bad. To give balance I also played six events over £500 and bricked them; however a healthy profit on 2012 - albeit redic small sample size. Solid results two years previous, altho Vegas not great and bricked a schedule sold in 2011 despite some deep runs. Highlight was being called retarded by Luke two tables out at Luton.
Online; summary winning player for 5 years across all sites, absolute disaster and losing player 2012/13. I'd like to think its variance; reality is that may be some explanation, however games have got tougher, I stopped putting time in and working on game, went back to work - and think I'm just not good enough to beat the games I was playing, high stakes MTT without a ton of work and my brain thinking like it was ten years younger. I am on iPad so can't sort links all former glories can be found on OPR or Pocket Fives (Claypole) Party Hi Roller win, SuperTuesday 2nd, Microgamming Sunday major etc.
So, basically I want to sell 25% of my action for the following schedule at the Macau Poker Cup. I am selling at 1.18 which after discussing with a few people think is very good value - I have no doubt will be much softer than DTD Monte Carlo unless Asian Poker has gone on a 12 month learning curve. However it's about reducing a bit of variance for me and helping expenses and I will be playing regardless as long as I make the trip.
Schedule:
Macau
Event 2 $710 US, $5500HK
Event 3 $645US, $5000HK Bounty
Event 5 $1420US $11000HK Main ($5m
Appt Cebu
Main $2540 100,000 Php - swapped with Macau Hi Roller
Total: $5366x1.18 = $6331.88
10% $633.19
5% $316.60
1% $ 63.32
In addition, as Hi roller swapped with appt Cebu, I have added the $6000HK$ event 8, $770 which backers have a opportunity to buy same % at spot. All agreed.
stars preferred as its PS Live - claypole
Pm if bank required.
Finally,
1. In unforeseen circumstances should choose not to make trip and play, I will refund any buy ins and markup. Think this only likely to happen if I'm hating life in Oz Poker wise
2. All returns made a stars conversion rates to UK £
3. Any other side events played in Macau do not part of stake. There some bowl comps I may play but not included, if a major issue for anyone you can have same %
4. There is a APPT final seat taken from prize pool in main, should we win obvious % rolled forward.
