My name is Ryan Spittles. I am a fairly regular player on the live circuit, and you may also know me from being an analyst on SkyPokerTV.
I play poker for a living and have done so for around 3 years, mainly online cash games, but I have played a tonne of live cash and live tournies too.
Here is my all important hendon mob:
http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=r&n=196990This will be my 4th trip to Vegas, and I feel perfectly at home there now. First time there it was pretty daunting and too much to take in but now I feel happy doing pretty much anything and can't wait to get back.
My first trip mainly involved cash games with maybe 4/5 small tournies and then the main event (I won a package). I came back with 1 min cash flag.
My second trip was last year, where I stayed in a house with 3 friends and played a mixture of cash, tournies, pool and being a pro vegas driver (Titbean will confirm for this). I had 3 decent cashes for a total of $50k+ from an outlay of $12k (excluding the main).
My third trip was last October where I bricked around $8k of tournies.
This year I will be out there for a month, and am gonna hit the grind hard and planning to play cash, and some of the smaller Venetian/Wynn tournies too.
I would like to sell 30% of my action in my WSOP Bracelet events at a mark up of 1.2, which I believes represents value for both me as a seller and you as a buyer.
16th June Event 30 NLH $1k
22nd June Event 40 NL $1.5k
23rd June Event 42 NLH $1k
25th June Event 45 NLH $1.5K - Ante only event
27th June Event 49 NLH $1.5k
30th June Event 52 NLH $1k
5th July Event 60 NLH $1.5k
That brings a total of $9000 and at the markup of 1.2 it takes it to $10800.
10% = $1080
5% = $540
1% = $108
Please use the rate on xe.com at time of shipping. Should any large binks occur then I will consult the collective wisdom of blonde as to how to get the very best rate when converting back to proper money before I do anything
Payment by either bank transfer or cash in Vegas please. I will be out there from the 14th of June. Bank transfers to be received by the 14th of June. Happy to wait a few days in Vegas if any investors are turning up after the 16th.
MAIN EVENTAlso I hope to be playing the main but a) I can't really afford to commit to a a 10k right now and b) I am not one of these players who feel comfortable seling at a large markup and wanting to ~freeroll a 10k. But should I end up playing the main AND I decide to sell to play it then investors in this package will have first refusal on pieces equivalent to their share here and also at the same markup, before I offer it on the open blonde market (again at the same mark up of 1.2).
There are also a couple more WSOP and the bigger Wynn/Venetian events that I have my eye on but can't commit to unless I hit the ground running in Vegas. The same rules as listed above apply if I end up selling pieces in order to play them.
CLAUSESI think everyone who has experience of Vegas can appreciate that plans sometimes change and day
sometimes get in the way of things. If I miss events then I will look at suitable similar events and will confirm on here before proceeding. If we do miss events totally then obviously I will provide refunds with mark up ASAP.
I will be playing some other events outside of the stake and again there is some possibility of some clashing, but will plan to minimise this.
Updates will be on here and on my twitter account @RyanSpittles
