    So i won a seat at this which starts in 2 weeks. Because i've been travelling to quite a few of these recently and they're basically pretty high varience. I'm hoping to sell around 50% of myself. The package is worth $11,150 so basically 1% = $111.50, 5% = $557.50 etc. Only want to sell in increments of 1%. If anybodys interested they can ship the dollars on stars or fulltilt (allinstevie) and email me at allinstevie@hotmail.co.uk, thanks.

    50,000 DKK = 9,930 USD

    Im not saying this is bad value or anything but I do think you could at least tell us that you are asking you to pay some juice for the privelage of staking you.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,070 ✭✭✭Ollieboy


    I think the problem here is more to do with people not known you on this forum. They know off you, but very few have met you and trust is always part of these deals.

    gl with this and start posting more...lol

    QFT.

    Also BCB's post above doesn't bode well, but is probably easily explainable and also comparing it to Rooney/Requim's deal, is nowhere near the same value.

    But as Ollie says alot of people have heard of you so you could get some backers alright.

    P.S. The strat section is over here


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,243 ✭✭✭✭Jesus Wept


    I don't think the Rooney/Requim deal should be the benchmark for people to be expected to live up to/be compared too.

    I don't really understand why R4AD does it, it seems to me that he is just giving away value/money.
    It's our gain of course, so ty to Dan.

    I have to agree with the sentiments above.i've seen two posts on this forum from this guy and both times he was looking for something.
    May very well be a good investment but to me just looks downright cheeky(now that's a word i haven't used for a while).

    Why not post a bit more stevie?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,019 ✭✭✭HoLLLLLaments


    cheeky? lol. hes not looking for a date. his amount of posts has nothing to do with him selling action. If you think its +ev and want to buy a % then email him. Since hes a known winning mtt player in Ireland i imagine thats why he posted on here. Selling % is pretty standard procedure. What the **** is wrong with people around here?

    Are you 16? Or over 18? No this is not personal before you go getting the hump about it. You come on here with 40 posts asking wtf is wrong with people like BCB???? Save that sort of vibe for p5s or 2+2 it's not welcome here.

    The boards community, in general, dont get in the habit of staking people who they dont know. Post amount has everything to do with situations like this - this forum will not stand for being used and abused by people just looking to sell some action, however good they are. If that was the case you would have a clutch of winning non-boardsies just coming here to get staked and contributing little else.

    In terms of my deal, i personally believe that staking in EPT events are far too high variance to make it worthwhile, hence i gave it some thought and came up with my own idea. Double-chance. This is -ev for me but i dont take poker or life too seriously so i dont mind. It's not a benchmark.

    This is an internet forum, obviously, but the key word is community. The poker community in Ireland is relatively small, and most people who post here would know each other personally. When it comes to staking threads, knowing someone personally makes a big difference, failing that knowing the quality/quantity of their advice can be a big seller.

    FWIW i believe Stephen is the best online mtt player on this island
    , potentially world class. I'll probably take 5 or 10% myself, that isnt the issue here.

    Stevie, why not come down to Drogheda and play the GJP main event this week, it's a fantastic tourny and will give you the opportunity to meet plenty of Boardsies. Best of luck in Copenhagen ill PM you and ship some $ when i decide how much i want.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 49 allinstevie


    for those of you that feel they don't know/trust me well enough thats fine and theres not much i can do to change that. I havn't played many live events in ireland so a lot of you guys will never have met me. However i'm planning on changing that this year starting on Drogheda this week where i'm already down to play on Thursday.

    And yes i'm only a newish member here and promise to post more from now on, hope it doesn't look cheeky or anything posting this here with my lack of posts but i was just putting it up on most of the forums were i'm a member and i thought there may be some interest.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,506 ✭✭✭Shortstack


    I have known Stevie for a few years - he used to play some our smaller live tournaments before becoming one of the top online players in the world. He has a natural ability for the game which was obvious from very early in his career. I am happy to vouch for him to anyone who is unsure of his trustworthiness.

    So many people on this forum look to shoot down people it is unbelievable. What is the problem with asking questions to give a poster a chance to explain something that might not be clear in their original post. Not everyone remembers to include every detail in their posts and what is obvious to some is not always obvious to others.

    Anyway, Stevie I saw this after seeing your post on THM and have already asked for a & there. I will be in Copenhagen to watch over my investment which reminds me I have a hotel to book :)

    BTW Stevie, as you don't post here that often - This is Mike from Green Joker.

    May very well be a good investment but to me just looks downright cheeky(now that's a word i haven't used for a while).
    Well I certainly wouldn't call it cheeky. Allinstevie has been spoken about around here lately as probably the best on-line MTT player in Ireland, so it was really just offering us the opportunity. (MOD NOTE: However unless you're widely regarded as one of the best MTT players in Ireland or have solid posting history, I don't want anyone else posting threads looking for stakes)

    I think BCB, Ollie and myself were just trying to explain why the amount of interest wasn't as high as expected. Again IMO, although most people would know the online player allinstevie as a great player, not many of us know the person based on either posting history or personal knowledge, that probably explained the lack of initial interest, but Mike has vouched for him now so possibly that may allay any fears.

    But another thing I also think happens is that people like to back regular posters because we get a feeling we know the person from posting here and can decide what kind of person they are as well as their ability based on their posting style, content, etc.

    But again this is all just IMO.

    I suppose we better get this thread back on topic so Allinstevie can keep an easier record, but if anyone else wants to vouch for stevie or whatever I'm sure he'll appreciate it.

    Finally, it would be great to see some posts from Allinstevie we have some of the best players in Ireland regularly posting here and yourself would be a great addition to many a discussion I'm sure.

    Also, HoLLLLLaments, let's calm down slightly, we're not quite as hysterical as 2+2 around here, if someone acts like a douche (using 2+2 terms) we call them out by ripping their post to shreds politely. It makes it much more satisfying.

    Steive,

    In case I thought I was taking a shot at you I wasnt. I also have no issue with trusting you, you know as well as i do that if you shaft somebody on a staking deal that the irish poker community is too small and it will severely count against you in the future.

    I was in the process of replying yesterday to take some % when I had a look at the xe and copped that you were asking us to pay some of your expenses also. This is not a standard type of deal that we see on boards. Rob asked for some juice in his trip to prague, he was up front about it and i was happy to take my couple of %. Dathio looked for some juice in last years aussie millions also and he got a full subscription.

    My point in all this is nothing to do with your post count on boards or with your trustwortyness - these are not issues for me. My issue is that you failed to be upfront in what you were offering and i dont think that it is too much to ask of you particularly when you are looking for $$ in return.

    Anyway, best of luck in the EPT - I may still take some %, im just trying to get my head around it.

    Noel.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,538 ✭✭✭Requiem4adream


    Noel makes valid points. The problem with the stars packages is the sats have been available for months, and the prize is a fixed package. In this case $11,150. The exchange rate has deteriorated a lot since then, so there's gonna be in some cases a big discrepancy between the actual buy-in and the package. If the $ continues to ...ummm... suck, then the Monte Carlo package is going to be a massive discrepancy between the two figures.

    Having said all that I'll take 10%.

    Fold AK utg over there. plz :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 49 allinstevie


    k with rooney_dives taking 10%, thats 50% fully booked, just to clear up again, in no way was i trying to be deceitful in any way shape or form, i just took what the stars package was worth i.e. $11,150 and divided it by 100 to come to 1% and thats what i offered. I wasn't trying to mark anything up add juice or whatever, sorry for the confusion

    cant you read? i didnt say anything about bigcitybanker. You ask am i 16 like it is supposed to be hilarious and witty? You jump on any post like your some sort of poker authority when in fact, as was pointed out in the other thread, your a ****ing tool. I dont know if you have a reputation for being any good at poker around here but from the amount of intelligence used in your posts i cant imagine you being able to beat 25nl. To prove your points in the other thread lets hammer out some sort of a bet along the lines i stated. The advice i gave that you said was awful will be the same advice i will give to someone in that bet so lets see who was right. If not we can always just play a bunch of 25/50 hu over a big sample size. Since you care about the postsers on boards so much im sure this would provide entertainment for them.


    Seriously though you ****ing moron get a life. Do you really want your tombstone to read "tricked everyone into thinking he knew what he was talking about on boards.ie" because thats all your life consists off. If im wrong prove me wrong=hu plz. Ill even pay you 1bb per table an hour minimum 4 tables to play me. Before you say its not personal and you have no reason to play me hu i would like to inform you that you suck at poker and lose at life. I would imagine you have few friends in real life because if your anything like you are on here i can see people walking away midsentence after being in your company for more than 30 seconds.


    Before the mod tells me to watch out with my tone.....blah blah


    im quite drunk now so the post may be a little incoherent but the general gist is there:Requiem=retard/sucks at poker/loser at life. Also me being drunk has nothing to do with the sentiments of my post just thatt they are not as elequently put as if i was sober.


    Also no.2 This is not anything against the posters here(pointing this out before requiem trys to imply i hate boards.ie and all its posters) only this pleb and how when he makes a post he acts like he speaking on behalf of the posters on here when in fact alot of them think he has the brain power and poker ability of a floppy dildo


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,538 ✭✭✭Requiem4adream


    wow.

    May or may not win post of the year.:D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,019 ✭✭✭HoLLLLLaments


    why are you trying to sound witty and intelligent? Also that hu cash can be changed to live with 300bb freezeout format. 10 freezeouts minimum


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,815 ✭✭✭bantee


    The threads these days are so full of action, it makes for some great light-hearted reading!
    Getting no work at all done though :o


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,538 ✭✭✭Requiem4adream


    Stevie's % is full.

    Thread is over.

    Your opinions, propbets etc mean nothing to me, you win , wp, gg, nh.

    Enjoy your ban.

    edit* - Btw you're obviously not Irish! Drunk at 1130am (ok that could be irish lol), use of the word "tombstone" , also standard "my d1ck is bigger than yours prop-bet" when cant respond to some constructive criticism; usual pointers towards American teen, 16 or 17 maybe.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 780 ✭✭✭Captain Tom


    being drunk at 11.30 ftw

    You know me being banned from here wont stop us playing?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,538 ✭✭✭Requiem4adream


    I know. What will stop us playing is a) i dont play cash games b) if i was playing 25/50 it would be .25/.50 c) i dont do propbets in any shape or form. Anyway, gl to you!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,537 ✭✭✭Ste05


    Wow. That's all I'll say

    HoLLLLLaments has been banned for a week. PM me if you want to come back after that time.

    "the brain power and poker ability of a floppy dildo"

    Super insult.

    I'll give $50 to a charity of choice of the first person to say this on a TV table.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,537 ✭✭✭Ste05


    Also I'm just going to lock this thread, Allinstevie has filled his quota.

    Allinstevie,

    Please feel free to start a new thread with updates, as I know we'd like to follow your exploits over in Copenhagen.
