this and i dont even really care for football... lol

these fkn wsop packages are all marked up to like 1.25 1.35, this seems crazy to me, anyone buy pieces and can enlighten me on what should be looking for?

fulflush won the 5k plo....didn't even know he still played poker

1.35 is pretty high but 1.2 is standardish for live markup. when you factor in the cost of getting to the event it's pretty fair IMO

yeah I've paid 15-20% markup in the past, tho I dun care who you are, anymoar is going into the lol-territory

also bricked on young fritzy who got tilted and left instead of finalising our deal for 10-20% of him in the ozzie millions (he came 3rd for 7 figures) when i stacked him in some dumb nl hand early one morning

the cost of going to the event is and should be irrelevant in the mark-up

so ideally with wsop packages should be looking for 1.15-1.2

seems like ive seen alot of ones at 1.25 and bit above sell action really easy

I got some really good players and payed 1.17 mu and 1.18 mu
If someone is a known name they can get away with selling at higher mu

I think it's fair to factor in travel expenses somewhat in the mu for live events

Mac question:

I have two laptop Macs, one Air (the old one) and one Pro (a new one). Is it possible for me to dual screen using the two? I'd like to be grinding from the Pro and use the Air as an extra screen; I have a friend who said it could be done, but I didn't find anything Googling around.

I think that can often be very fair. Assuming the horse is a very good player, in live tournies, especially the WSOP's which are probably the softest tournies of the year, unless they are playing a really hard schedule, good players can often get a 100% ROI or more. Selling at 1.25 and even 1.35 for very good players in a soft schedule is still a good deal.

Also when buying, always ask about the tax situation. For me in Canada, 30% is witheld. Apparently you can get it all (or most back) and can definitely get back 30% of your losses from it (so they are only taking 30% of total trip profit). But this still adds up and if the taxes are initially coming out of your share, the markup should definitely be decreased.

I know 2 ppl who is selling to the main at 1.5 and 1.35 and I'm probably buying pieces of both. I'm def expected to make money in the long run. 1.2 or less for the main for anyone competent is a great buy.

Watched the first few minutes of Roy's SC video and koreans are just f***ing crazy. Jesus.

mrw84's introduced me to aeroplane. The music is just really fun and all over the place, it's never monotonous. There's always something new going on every couple of minutes in a not-so-in-your-face way.

I'm moving out of the London grindhouse in August (to live with my gf, woooo), anyone fancy taking my spot? Other 2 housemates are currently CZI and a civilian who does play poker from time to time.

gg

only people who call normal people civilians are mafioso and army dudes. I guess we can add pokerplayers to that list now.

wow, thank you so much for posting the aeroplane's mix, that is incredibly sweet.

I was just thinking it's not getting enough love Glad you like it

If you have spotify, which you should, he's got an album In Flight Entertainment which is pretty sweet too. Not as good as this mix but still good!

Mike, we're gonna be deciding ourselves who moves into "the London grindhouse", not sure yet if it will be a poker player. But I suppose you were just trying to help, so thanks.

Hey guys, just spamming the thread but I've got a pretty legit mac poker-setup that I don't use anymore so here's my marketplace post.. I was thinking it might come in handy for someone traveling to vegas for the wsop
