there is absolutely no reason for someone like shaun to be backed besides the fact that he WANTS to back morons like me, aspoker8, augie. If he didnt back us and he still was backed i would think he is an idiot bc it would be unjustifiable but @ least he does have a reason (also i think charder has horses as well) oh and i think bax/shetes gave shaun like 70% of himself so i mean his deal is understandable

i know this is sort of joking, but going out of ur way to say "hof" is dumb and i think theres a part of you that actually might think this would be a good idea

My guess is that they dont wanna deal with the swings that can easily reach 50-100k for just online. Im sure it is not a great feeling to go thru that. I am not backed and ive blown up two 30k rolls so far, and it can put you in a ****ty emotional/mental state.

anyways most makeup is prolly 60kish.

Why not get a deal where your online/live makeup is separate? Or get a live only deal?

Yes, but it was also your money that you lost to start with. So you are only getting back what you lost. Ex.

You play $10k worth of buy-ins on your own and then hit a 10k score and are now breakeven.

You play $10k worth of buy-ins being backed and then hit a 10k score that all goes to your backer.

Both scenarios you are neither up or down money.

Take the money and refuse to acknowledge your backers existence.
