(umm... I don't think you play online Buzz? playing small stakes with a cross booked sidebet is pretty common. As mentioned above, there is less rake that way).
Finding a good escrow on WPN might not be easy though because many don't want to out their sn on there. Also, I think there are some security restrictions on withdrawing funds right after receiving them as a player transfer. You would have to play out a certain amount of $ based on the size of the transfer, unless they've changed it since I've last seen.
The rake isn't too bad, especially if you have a deposit bonus on top of the normal rakeback. One weird thing about the o8 husngs is the 150's have the lowest rake % which is even lower than the 200s, 300s, and 400s. Idk why they would have a 150+2.66 and then 200+4, 300+6, and 400+8. Some crazy russian guy is usually sitting these, but he's fun to play against
For only 21 games, it's probably just better to pay the rake. Especially for deadpeddler, since he's new he would get the deposit bonus on top of rakeback and likely get bumped up into a higher rewards tier also. He could squeeze a few higher effective rb % by saving the points and spending them on an o8 mtt rather than trading them in directly for cash since the rate is a lot better for buying mtt entries.
