Selling
Telling it like it is.
I would like to play the £550 Deepstack at DTD this weekend but would need to sell 60% at 1.2
5% = £33
10% = £66
If I sell out, I will be playing on Saturday.
All monies to be paid by 12 noon on Saturday unless I know you and we make other arrangements.
Before investing, please see pros and cons listed below.
Con: I’m not worth 1.2
Pro: I will pay all travel / food expenses.
Pro: I will not be treating Vinny to a Nando’s.
Con: I haven’t played a great deal of live poker recently.
Pro: I cashed in the last comp I played at DTD.
Con: We probably won’t win anything.
Pro: I secretly think we will.
Pro: I won’t feel any added pressure because people have invested.
Con: I lied about not feeling added pressure.
Pro: If I win one of the included £1100 seats, buyers will be free rolling that event at the same percentages.
Thanks for reading.
PS- I already have a perfectly serviceable arse, please don’t tear me a new one.

That depends what you call proper. Will you accept stuff like, "I re raised but a bloke moved all in with a bald head and a sovereign ring"?

That's the ONLY sort I'll accept.
Ideally, this sort of thing.....

A shame that thread went so badly downhill subsequently.
10%, please.

Had I the money...
However, good though the Brighton report was, the Walsall one was better, on so many levels.

First of all, Thanks very much to everyone who offered to buy a piece. I really appreciate it.
I posted a similar version of this thread last night at about 3am, then I went to bed.
I few minutes later, I got up and removed it. I just didn't feel comfortable about it.
This morning, I re wrote it and posted it again. I still didn't feel comfortable about it and I almost took it down again but I decided to let it stay because really want to play tomorrow.
Anyway, why should I worry? No one is twisting anyone's arm, all the details are up front and everyone knows what they are getting.
Still. I wasn't comfortable.
Then, Tony popped up, bought a piece and the die was cast. I closed my laptop and went outside to dig a trench. As you do.
Mrs Red aside, Tony is probably my best friend in the world. He's also a very wise old bird, so wise in fact that I often spend several days pondering on what he says and why he said it.
So as I dug my trench I mused about his request for a "Proper tourney report". Why did he ask for that? Slowly the answer dawned on me.
See he knows that I can't justify selling at a mark up of 1.2, so offering something in addition, (like an amusing tournament report) would sugar the pill.
Now I know why I was feeling bad.
I just don't really want to sell at a price I don't believe I deserve. I didn't like it when I did it a couple of years ago (Horseshit sandwich), and I don't like it now. No matter how I dress it up, it just doesn't sit right with me.
So. I'm cancelling the sale.
There. I really do feel so much better now.
