result:
he was first to negotiate his price up in exchange for equity negotiation, and got £65,000 for 40% equity. basically he seems to be a Vegas Nights meets Poker Events style operation in the UK. I think he did quite well out of it.

Just watched it there Jeff.

Thats ridiculous I think he got a great deal to be honest. Considering his business has absolutely no protection and anyone could just copy his idea in an instant and he would be buggered.
