wish me luck!!!

just sold out a bap(buy a piece) on a stakeing site i am on in about a day for 150 bucks bankroll. Going to play mtt sit n go's including a 90 man on stars which i final tabled the last 1 i played, plus a few games on full tilt and maybe a couple of small buy in mtt's.

So i am pumped up or nervous or both,lol, but have been playing well and things have been going well the last week for the most part in poker, i really hope it continues!!!!:)

  • Lotsa karma coming, Philli . . .
  • What happens in a BAP after you win or lose? I've been solicited a lot to stake players with my satellite vouchers or cash, but none of them made sense to me.

  • the system they have on the site is say i offer 100 shares at 1.50 each share with 55%cut, so every share one buys get's 0.55%, so if they buy 10 shares they get 5.5% of whatever is won. After each game you input what buy in you played and what you won if anything, the system keeps track of each stakers return, when done you just ship what is owing to each player.

    For me right now since i have no bankroll this is a chance to get some kind of bankroll going, if and when i get my own roll again i will more go at games alone, but it is very nice people and it is a bit of a rush if you are deep and have lots of railers:).

    Ya i see your the satellite king,lol, your so lucky:)

    planning to play wsop satellites when they start soon?

    If you lose, it's on the stakers. But if they stake you again and you win, depending on the deal made, they generally have a chance to recoup their losses.
  • Makes sense if you have a very good player but not high enough bankroll...

    They rely on the players to ship them the money?? It isn't somehow done auto? Seems like a pretty big trust issue with people you don't know..
  • yes their is still a trust issue, but i have known many people there for a few years so i feel comfortable there. I will not risk many friendships by screwing anyone outta money and they can easily find me so i sure as hell don't want that stress plus i want to progress in poker so why risk it.:)

  • You need to convert your hands better.

    You are likely playing too weak to have that small a stack at that blind level.

    Nice Soul Read.
  • lol, not really that game, as we were not even getting 7 hands a blind level cause everyone was taking sooooo freaking long to decide, aces no action, 2 other hands missed big draws both times then card dead for the rest of the time.

    still learning the convert thingy but it is done automatic that's what came out which don't look no different then any other, but would rather not convert anyway,lol

  • So the stakers give you $150.. Does that mean you are only staked for $150/$5 Sng = 30 Sit and Goes? Or until your entry losses accumulate to $150?

    Talk about bad luck. He even picked up the nut flush draw on the river!!11!!

  • The whole staking industry pretty much never passed my basic common sense test. Not sure this thread changed that much :P

    I agree with the above, on the other hand it's quite a coup to get staked so congrats!
  • So wait.. Do you mean that the average internet player isn't better than the average internet player?

    Now.. If it was the pokerrooms staking these players, it's genious. You make the money back in rake and provide opponents for your non-staked players.
  • Staking makes sense if you stake someone with a proven track record over a large sample. My friend gets staked for $500-$10000 MTTs while bankrolling himself for all the smaller games. I believe the standard is 60/40 with makeup.

    However, bankrolling someone with no track record seems ridiculous.
  • wooohoooooo made it for the 200 grand!!
