First I would like to apologize for my post that I made VERY LATE last night. No excuse for being so hateful and tilted but I was.
I should have taken a more direct and mature approach and will do so in the future. Not a very good way to get a point I was trying to make across. The reason I singled out who I did because he in fact trolled one of my share selling threads a few months ago and basically ruined it.
Somebody mentioned above also that Markup can/should be negotiated if people are interested but don't want to pay that much. Against my better judgement I made a thread and tried to sell shares. I was unaware at the time of the with/without ESTIMATED rebuy and addon expense on OPR. My 2008 and 2009 OPR's were both positive. 2010 at the time I was breakeven. I sold shares for 174 dollars worth of tourneys and just thinking make the math easier plus the fact I was feelling confident in having a good day I decided to make it 200 total 14 percent markup.
Instead of people passing on the thread I got troll after troll with their self important posts and this is what my thread turned into after probably ten deleted posts. Mostly from people who said they would buy shares with no markup but disappeared when I offered that. BTW I reported 0 posts and they were deleted by I think Bobo for one reason or another....

I am not the greatest tournament player around here I will be the first to admit that. I have won some and lost many. I have done my fair share of cashing too. I would like to think that my reputation on 2p2 when it comes to handling money is spotless though. When the markup was questioned and people were saying(one donkey in particular) ZOMG you are charging 14 percent markup and I would have bought shares if you didn't blah blah blah.....
I immediately offered to drop the markup to 0 as I really wanted to play that day. Guess what happened then? Nothing I guess the troll was too offended that I even had the gall to charge markup in the first place. I mean give me a break with that crap. The dude seemed like he was legit mad at me. Read the thread...
Lastly I would like to point out that a lot of these threads being made in the marketplace especially by unknowns should obviously be subject to scrutiny. There is no question about it. I mean it's pretty amazing that someone can link an OPR with good stats and people are ready to jump on it without doing much more due dilligence regarding character. Moreso in the past I think than in the present and future I am sure.
One particular supposed females thread proves that. I mean we all know how online poker is. A link to an OPR can be misleading in some cases with all of the ghosts/sharing accounts that goes on out there but whatever. All I can say is that every single hand/tourney I have ever played on my account has been by ME. Drunk or sober lol.
I would also like to think if I ever binked a 100k plus score I wouldn't need a 12 dollar 180 stake ever either but that is just me... Have a nice day gents I gotta get back to work.
