If someone wants to stake or be staked in cash poker, that makes sense. It's essentially a loan. But in tournaments you're basically buying/selling pieces of equity. How can that not have a direct impact on everybody else's equity?
The thing is it's impossible to police, so the most fair approach is to just allow it so more of it remains transparent.

What makes you think it’s remotely transparent?

That's why it gotta be a joke. If he was serious he would be monitoring this thread, answering any legit questions about his history/results, etc... The fact that he hasn't been back tbh speaks to me that if he was serious he would be a terrible person to invest in. No follow ups, nothing.

Why would he respond back to a bunch of dudes acting like they're 10? I try to envision what guys like you and Tampa look like and Shaun Deeb pops into mind. I think Shaun has a very punchable face, no?

well since he's such a good option for staking why don't you give him a call, he did leave his number in the op

I get Kevin James a lot, but King of Queens, not Paul Blart

It's not a binary choice. I wouldn't stake him either, but that doesn't mean I need to act like a 8===D I would suggest he start out in some smaller buyin tournaments, achieve some results, and put together a bankroll for mid-level tourneys.
