Looking to auction off up to 20% of my UKPC Main Event Action. Bidding will start at 'Spot Rate' (£5% = £55 / £10 = £110..etc) and will finish on Sunday 16th Feb @ 9pm (REAL time not forum time). There are a few reasons for me auctioning this action rather than selling at my own price;
- After the thread a while back, I feel it best to let the community decide what / if they want to pay - therefore I can't be seen to be 'taking the piss' if I was to charge what people would see as an unreasonable markup.
- To get the best price possible (for me and you).
- Fun (having never ran one before).

The UKPC Main event field, although I know this will sound very cliché, should be pretty good 'value' in theory due to the immense number of satellite qualifiers, ran on arguably the 'softest' poker site on the net (I would go as far as to say probably the best £1k of the year in terms of the field). I feel that I should have a considerable edge on the field due to the fact I've played multiple £1k+ events both live and online and this gives me an edge as I will 100% not be playing 'scared' / won't be affected by any 'money jumps', like I expect so much of the field to be. I've also played over 6,000 MTTs online lifetime and therefore have encountered a lot of different spots / players...etc. My live tournament record since the turn of the year has been; played 3 / cashed 3 - with deep runs in each: 8th 25/25 Series Blackpool. 10th 25/25 Series Sheffield. 28th DTD 500 Deepstack. Hopefully we can continue the cashing trend!

^ Above is my lifetime online MTT record. Notable results this past week include: 9th Sunday $109+R ($5k) / 1st $22[1R1A] ($6.5k).

Can take payment by: Stars / Bank X / Moneybookers / Cash at DTD.

(Am unsure which day 1 I will play as of yet, will let investors (if any) know ASAP and will use this thread for updates)!

Bid away!

Oh and can bids be made using markup figure please.

E.g. 10% @ 1.0 instead of 10% @ £110

Maybe I don't understand them properly. I've not sold for a live event ever since the thread questioning markups (this being down to me not playing live as much) and felt that this may be a better way (people paying what they think is the right price). The only thing I've sold for since have been online MTTs at spot which run regularly / whose field I have a better 'grasp' of (and mainly for things such as ST / Sun500 where I shouldn't be selling much higher than spot anyway)!

The hate for auctions is pretty clear so will steer clear and sell normally in future! Gotta let this run now though! Smiley

As it stands:

Alex 15% @ 1.13
Junior 5% @ 1.15
