Selling a % of myself at the Aria Blackjack Invitational and Misc Vegas Activities 4/23-4/27

Hey Guys,

Just got the go ahead from BoboFett to post this so here it goes. I know it's last minute and probably won't appeal to most people but figured it's worth a shot.

On the 24th I'll be playing @ the first ever Aria blackjack invitational. It's 750k guaranteed, there will be less than 100 players and top 4 spots pay. For info on how these things work you can check http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/29...nament-596013/

that thread was about the Bellagio winner take all event, but you can see I linked my invite to there. I've played in 1 of these, but have been invited to a bunch. There is another Bellagio one in May I'll be at too.

Here in my physical invitation.


I am looking to sell a sort of package deal if anyone is going to be in town this weekend, or is a local and is looking for a fun sweat and/or a good time. Along with 25% of my total cash the weekend will come with a ticket for Saturday nights The Eagles concert. I don't have tickets in hand but pretty sure the Face Value is around 300. Also, I am getting a Cabana @ Venus (the topless pool @ Ceasars) on Sunday so you are welcome to come to that. I have a suite @ Aria and MGM over the 6 days I am there, you are welcome to crash there, party there. I also have a room @ the Flamingo on mon - wed that you can have to yourself, if you'd like. I am probably going to be getting bottle service at least 1 night I am there, so this will also include that.

Another big thing is i MAY stay until next weekend as well. If i DO stay next weekend the package will include a ticket to the Mosley / Mayweather fight. I am about 50% right now, and if I cash in this tournament I will def be staying.

I arrive Friday night, so on Friday we can meet up, sort everything out, and you can come to the cocktail party and registration to the event with me. Then Saturday you can sweat the tournament while I play. With less than 100 people, simple algebra shows the buyin is valued @ atleast 7500. Plus i've played in this before and have played other heads up blackjack tournaments before as well as have Wong's books so I def. think I have an edge on the field.

If i cash in the tournament you get 25% of what i cash for -- it is paid in promo chips, you have the option to take cash or to play once through with me on the promo chips and see where we get. They are play until you lose chips, and have about a 99% face value, so I don't mind giving away that 1% and just paying you cash. But, if you go on a nice little heater with them you can sometimes get it as high as 3-4 even 500% face value with some run good. It's up to you whichever way is fine.

here are some more pictures:






I figure this would be better for just one person that is going since i'll have one extra ticket to everything -- I also can get us a few show tickets if you want, Elvis, or any cirque show, or some of the ones that diamond card HET members get.

If you have any questions feel free to PM or post here, I'll check back frequently. You don't have to send me anything before I leave since I am going to be playing this no matter what. Unless you won't be in town in time I figure we could square up Friday night, and then go out to a club or something.

So package includes:
25% of total cash in blackjack tournament
1 ticket to the eagles
you + 1 free entry to cabana @ Venus along with drinks and food
Mon, Tues, Wed free room @ Flamingo
bottle service 1 night when we go to a club

may also include:
Mosley Mayweather tickets (900 face , going for like 1500 online)

Hopefully this catches someone's eye, if not no big deal. Goodluck at the tables!

You have gone to such great detail to explain everything but I can't seem to find anywhere in your post how much 25% costs.

haha, sorry. Didn't even realize that. I guess it's more of a market thing. I mean the buyin is >7500 based on payouts, so Maybe somewhere in the 3k range? I really don't know. I've never seen anything like this before, so it's all kind of just out there. I guess 3k for now, if any1 is interested. I figure i have like .5% of actually selling it, but since i'll be in town alone, worse case scenario i'll have someone to hangout and gamble / drink with.

I'm interested, the Mayweather fight would probably be the sticking point and 3k might be a little high for me as I live in Vegas, if the Mayweather fight becomes a sure thing let me know and I will give this more thought.

I quit my job and live in Vegas, so if you want someone to gamble/drink with. I'm your man. I also used to work in the club business, so I've got that hooked up...

UPDATE: so busted my 20k i brought with me in the 12 hours since i've been here. I am willing to sell 50% of my action in this tourney for 3500 or b/o. That's like @ .75-1 of facevalue. All the other stuff still included as they've already been prepaid. I am getting more money wired on Monday but banks are closed already on east coast. My flight is @ 2 or 3pm PST today. You would have to send by then or meet me here at the Aria. To sweeten the deal you also can have a bottle of Johnny Walker Blue my host gave me. PM me for contact info so we can discuss.
