EPT Dublin - my entry

Requiem4adream

Ok here's the finished product so to speak:

due to unexpected demand i've accepted 40% total (many thanks to scummyscousers for facilitating a 2% reduction). Thanks for all the interest and sorry for those i cant fit in

40% total of €8000. €3200 = $4545 round it up to $4600 to allow for any exchange rate fluctuations (for the purposes of the tournies ill run!! not trying to scam $55 extra lol).

Below is everyone's % they have of me for the EPT Dublin main event.

Also 23 people form a consortium for 50% of profit on $4,600 worth of tournaments on a sunday. Equal share. Will post a thread 4 or 5 days in advance listing the tournaments to be played, but it will be every decent tournament starting from 4pm on a sunday til 4am on monday, hopefully finishing off at 10am monday morning with a ROI For those not familiar with stars, tournaments will be Sunday Warm Up, Million, 2nd chance, H/U tourny ($215 x 4), $100rebuy, $200rebuy etc. Basically tournaments with big prize pools so worth a sweat.



Important

Will only accept any money after i'm officially registered. I'll let everyone know when im paid up and we'll start the collection.

% thingy sounds good

shady_dice

guess im pretty much obliged am i i'll get the ball rolling? nice idea with the side offer, i'll take 2% of you for €160. now just win the damn thing!

Flushdraw

OK i didnt get much sleep and i'm snowed under with work and i'm not quite sure if i'm getting this

Buyin is €8k...35% of this is €2800 so 1% is €80

So when you collect the €2800, youre going to put it together with your own €4200 and pay into the EPT. Money in the bank, % safe etc. So far so good?

Youre then going to play a seperate spate of games on a Sunday totaling $4000 from your own pocket and you're going to split any profit you make 50/50 with the consortium that bough a % of you? Have i got it?

Or are you going to use the €2800 to play the side games and if you lose, we lose?

Requiem4adream

Tony! more sleep!

Gonna pay the 8k entry myself before anything else.

Then:

Collect 35%.

Then:

Play $4000 worth of tournaments on a sunday, 50-50 with my Animal Farm buddies! it's basically a free side offer to give people 2 chances to make some profit!


Just a quick example:

i get 15x 2% and 1x 5%. i win the EPT for 1m. 15x 20,000, 1x 50,000. 350,000.

then i win the sunday million for 180k. 90k split evenly between 16 people. 90k for me.

then the strippers on a beach in Acapulco etc etc

This is my understanding. In the case that this is correct, I will take 2% for €160 as well please. Good offer sir.

Mellor

I think thats it, if so sound pretty good.

opr

Yeah i'll take 2%.

The reason so many scams work is that their are greedy bastards out there who are fool enough to think they are getting something for nothing.(ie Nigerian Bank scams / Pyramid Schemes etc etc) Who are you and what are your results like? This might help some of the guys make an informed decision before commiting to a few percent of you!!

BigCityBanker

1%

semibluff

its safe to say it isnt a scam, and those who are investing already know who he is

Scummyscousers

Good luck with this. I may try a Sat myself. (er indoors allowing)

300K is that all? sht I spend that on Red Wine every year. (special reserve only) Please reduce my % to 3.9999997% . Thank god that fellow asked the question...



Good choice on the Charity...now we have the gods behind us

Requiem4adream

Twice yep, although i played much better this year Got the better of the other Daniel at the table (even tho he took me out!).

As for the offer, i know what it's like to give someone hundred quid or 2 for a tourny % and they're gone 2nd hand and it feels like a waste...at least this way everyone gets a decent sweat!!!!

Flushdraw

I'll take 2% Dan. Good work mate

ionapaul

I'll have 1% if it is still going

RoundTower

I don't really get it but I'll take 1% for €80

I think everyone knows what his online name is Smurph . Fair play to you for giving him a €20 bonus aswel..2x80 is what now??

Yeah that hat never leaves his head!

cardshark202

You're taking too big a risk and giving too much away imo. I can't support this.

Ollieboy

2% for me pls. Excellant offer, will be interesting to see what anyone else as to offer now.

I would have accept this alone for the Sunday option.

Gl in the event.

P.S. I never buy percentages, but think this is a great value bet and one of the most promising players in Ireland. Now if HJ bought a percentage, that would make it interesting.....lol, sorry shouldn't mention the war..!!

gl mate.

P.S. Again, can I be the pig in the farm...snort

The same thought went through my head, but as you say that's all in the past now hopefully.

You read minds don't you? No wonder you know where you are in every hand.. (or should that be trotter?)

ocallagh

I kind of get it. €80 for 1% of EPT action, plus an equal share (divided amongst all backers) of 50% of profit from 4k of buyins on Sunday Tournaments?

Stick me down for 1% even if I got the above wrong, looks like great value to me.

Is this how communism works in practice. Regardless of everyones contribtuion they all get the same % payout from the Sunday games. Or will Snowball be slaughtered!

Im only kidding, good luck in your venture, i hope you go very deep!!

BigDragon

I'll take 2%.

Abusing the Hat as a fashion statement may result in friction in Team Farm!!!!!

Hectorjelly

after reading the KQ hand and explanation ill think ill pass. Best of luck to RD though.

poorbarman

This looks too good to be true........but the boy can play ,i'll take 1 % please,if thats ok.Best of luck with the EPT sir...........

Ste05

I'll take 1% too.

Just to double check, €2,800 = $4,000, so €80 = ~$115, (just for the Stars transfer, as and when you want it).

shoutman

I'll take 2% too, just found out I actually have 200 quid resting in the post office for the last 12 years since my communion no less!

Darragh I think you should play the EPT aswell, I'll offer to buy 2% if your up for it, sell 60 % to spread the risks.

Fair play to RD to take the chance and buy-in directly

Lazare

Yeah Dan, I'll take 1% too. Very good offer, and best of luck buddy.

basbari
