Hey guys!

This is another low cost, high reward plan.

This is how it goes:

Step 1)You send me $57.50. I play a $57.50 HU TURBO
One of 2 things will happen.
-I win(see step2)
-I lose(stake ends unless you want to go again but this serves little purpose)
Step 2)Ok so i won! Yay! I now havee $110. I play ANOTHER $57.50 and hopefully take that down. Again one fo 2 things
-I win(see step 3)
-I lose. If i lose i will get to $57.50 again($1 rake between 2 games) And start from step 1.
Step 3) We've successfully won 2 games in a row. Not really that difficult.(I am NOT a HU master, but imo I am a goodthinking player who could make this epic, will be willing to give out aim via pm so you can ghost me in the match making sure im not a total nub) After winning 2 games in a row we have around $167.

With this $167?(roughly) We play the $109 TURBO at 20:30(on stars)
Ideal situation is we ship 9k. And turn $57.50->9k and split 4.5k, 4.5k

Yet again, this is high variance, so this isnt for the faint of heart! Ideally for those looking for some sweat, and to also give me some fun.

If this doesnt go off in time(as there is 1 hour left ) we can run this tomorrow, or the next day, or the next day...

OPR: Stars: If only i didnt play out of my BR http://officialpokerrankings.com/pok...F14FA.html?t=2

Tilt: http://officialpokerrankings.com/ful...60541.html?t=2

Ruaidhrí12 on stars(Please note this has an accented i so will need to be copied and pasted)

Also, I wont just say BUST after losing, I will supply you with clear precise updates of the tourny(or HU if you wish) via pm/aim.

Refs will be given out via PM(Finally i have refs!)

Thanks guys, gl on the felt.

EDIT: The 2nd game is to make sure we dont lose all of our money in the tournament. If you dont feel this is necessary and want to take a risk it is fine by me.

All ideas are welcomed

I think i mentioned high variance serveral times.

Not only did i mention high variance, but i mentioned the purpose

It's for those looking for a sweat/having fun.

Please dont say anything negative if you arent involved, or do not plan to become involved.

Let's say you win two HU's in a row and have $167 and enter the $109 turbo and bust. What happens to the $58 left over? Do you get to keep that for your hard work? I'm def interested in this, but only if you'd be willing to take a $2.20 stake and win 55 $2.20 HU's in a row to get the $109 needed for the turbo.

i meant that the $58(Give or take) will go directly to you. So that the backer does not lose the initial stake. Even if we bomb in the tournament, he gets his initial stake back. Or he can ship whatever it is to get to $57.50($1?) and we can go to step 1.

I know ur messing with me swd


Anyways, tournies coming soon. Just PM me and we'll get it going tomorrow guys. Have always got this going..Gamblers must be asleep now.

Yet again, do have refs.

why not just ask for a $109 stake?

EDIT: Thanks rje for actually being on topic haha

Well imo my stats dont really support me asking for a $109 stake. like 5.5k prizes but on stars I had a problem with BRM Obv hurt my ROI%

I dont think id have gotten a $109 stake(perception). But i believe that someone who is having a little fun, and has some money to throw around may throw $57.50 for a good sweat,laughs,and hopefully a good pay day.

This may be the case for a $109 stake too, but im not that sure.If anyone wants to directly throw me into the $109, i would not question it

if u have any other questions rje im here

I am interested in this, but I am thining of possibly playing $20 stakes HU. I am interested and we could do a trial run within the next week if everything checks out ok. Do you have graphs of heads up play?

And he's looking to stake this guy..

just a very suspicious thread imo

if you read bambam's post itt it also could read as though he's thinking of attempting something similar to what rory is instead of staking rory.

I read that post multiple times and still wasn't sure.

I have a job outside of poker, and can afford to stake someone. I figure I am not super amazing at poker, so why not stake someone that is better than me. I don't understand how that is suspicious. I know I am new and all, but I was asking a question about playing a certain limit in my thread, it had nothing to do with staking. Sorry if I killed your thread Rory.

EDIT: I am sorry if the post seemed fishy, I just do not want to get a bad rep for nothing when I just joined the site recently.
