Backers for EPT Deauville??

Daithio

I'm thinking of heading over to this in early February to have another shot at this EPT lark. I've been running pretty well lately, but still can't really justify putting up the entire €4k out of my own pocket, so thought that maybe some of you might be interested in buying a small share in me? I reckon the easiest way to do it would be to sell shares of myself at €100 a piece, so whoever's interested can buy as little as €100, or as much as they like:D .
€100 would work out as 1.75pc of whatever I may win. This isn't an even ratio, €100 is actually 2.5 pc of the buy in, but I need to keep a slight margin (30%) for my own profit and to cover expenses etc.
So that's it, €100 will buy you 1.75% of whatever I may win. If you're interested pm me how much you want to buy etc.
Thanks, Dave.

Daithio

Cool Dev, whatever suits. I'll give you a discount if you promise to be ultra biased in the reports.

DeVore

Whats the prize pool and payouts for Deauville

(Estimate of course)

DeVore

Yeah, no seven-twoeyness!! lol!

DeVore

two first days means there will be about 400 players. Expect it to be full too. 1.6M prize pool with the winner taking about 600k would be my guess.

fair play to you Daithio... this share per player thing could be a thing of the future at boards... i'm selling 95% of any winnings at the wsop, it'll cost you about $10,000 but i'm planning on finishing a respectable 31st, so you'll make some good money!! no all i need is a very rich boardsters with more money than sense!

best of luck daithio

I brought this up last year.

The boardsters that play the WSOP should set themselves up as a syndicate.....and issues shares in themselves (as a group).

So that way, we peasant boardsters who are stuck in Ireland, could have some money riding on all the boardsters and make it bloody interesting.

e.g

20 boardsters*$10000 wsop entry = $200000

add 10% margin $220000 players equity

1000 (0.1%)shares @ $220 each ... so you'd have a .1% interest in 20 players

Does that mean we need 200 backers at €1000 each?

Cant really see us getting that much support.

Sending 2-5 players might be a realistic target. But a good idea and would like to follow it up.

Maybe make a shortlists of players....?

Me and you first do...

Well for a start, I'd say the lads would only sell a few % of themselves anyway...otherwise why would they bother going.

So a more practical outcome would be that say 20 boardsters made 10% of themelves available.

$10000/10 = $1000 + 10% fee = $1100 for 10% of one player

=> $1100 * 20 = $22000 (20 players)

Divide into 100 shares = $220 each for a 1% piece of 20 players.

Methinks that's all worked out correctly anyway.

To completely hijack Daves thread my idea for the WSOP is to play 6events at $20,000 - sell off 50% at 200euro per %. A whole months entertainment for 200euro and better odds than the bookies

I still have 2 weeks to decline the offer, but I don't think that's an option. I'll be pawning off my alarm clock and ordering in a hammock... oh, and a ticket to vegas this summer!
