I don't think it's good form to ever not state markup and I don't think you can really argue against that, facebook or not
Agreed. Seemed to be plenty in fb, that thought it was fine argue against though. |

Didn't even notice, had to read it 3 or 4 times before I realised what you were talking about. Should obviously have been "Mark-up's getting out of hand". |

If I challenged peoples posts on FB charging markup I'd probably lose a few friends. I have some friends who are pretty bad at poker on FB but are playing things like online 1ks+ and selling at 1.2. Annoys me a bit but I just try to ignore it.
Also think Dan is OOL here calling MC out.  |

Saying instead of playing a 500 comp with 50% of yourself play a 250 comp with 100% is only applicable if there is a 250 comp with the same structure and # of runners available. When DTD deep stacks used to be £300 2day main and £150 1day side comparing the £150 event to exactly half of the £300 is miles wrong, prize money/structure completely different and even if the £150 has (pulling numbers out of thin air here) 20% softer field it's still gonna be more profitable to play the £300.
If the WSOP had an 8 day $5k event with 6500 runners and a gtd top prize of $5m I'd prolly play that over the main event.

Many of us (certainly me) don't have Facebook, so the repeated references to Facebook thread or threads in here don't mean too much. Am certainly not saying the FB convos need repeating here, I'd rather they were not, in truth, just that much of the debate is meaningless to those of us not on FB. |

Basically tikay a well known player offered a package and made no mention of the fact that it was marked up at 1.3 (and he was selling 70%). He also made some odd reference to investors potentially getting a free % in bonus tournaments (which he may or may not play) and there was a budget for some unspecified satellites.
At this point a 400 post inquiry started.

Dunno why we can't say it's Pete Wigglesworth. Not like it's a small thread hidden away somewhere!

I think the main point of this thread has been about that particular post rather than mark ups in general. Completely agree that you can sell for what you want but buyers also have the right to ask you to justify your asking price.
In this case though no justification was provided, the mark up was just added to the selling price and there was no mention of any mark up in the OP. On top of this not all the tournaments were listed (just a budget for unspecified satellites) and there were some mystery bonus tournaments mentioned (which may or may not be played). It just seems like really bad tekkers in general. Members of the poker community made some good points about why this shouldn't be done, which were ignored.
Some members of the non poker community decided to use the 'c' word a lot.
