REQUEST - Genting Edinburgh [26 July 2012] [SOLD]

[ForthThistle]

Hi All,
      
**********SOLD OUT**********Hope this appeals to some as very good valuable opportunity.
My name is David Blacklaw -(ForthThistle)  Long time poster on APAT and can have a few vouch for me if required.
Been playing poker for around 6 years but never anything bigger than the usual £50 local casino with the odd shot at a bigger buy in. Any shots i have taken have been 50% fruitful with my first stake on Blonde poker http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=55111.0 got my backor George2Loose on APAT as well a 812% return on his money. We also made day 2 of the UKIPT Edinburgh finishing a credible 70th after losing a flip for 70% of my Stack. (After winning a seat at the Live Sat).  Have been playing the APAT tour and had a couple of decent scores.

Your spelling is awful.
Never split an infinitive. 
Verbs should agree with their subjects. 
Do not start a sentence with a conjunction.
Never end a sentence with a preposition.
Never end a sentence with a linking verb.
An adverb should always follow the verb.

  It was fine I would have jumped in if I saw it in time

I think the request is excellent and is a good format for what these should be. Very clear what you are looking for and backing up the reason why you are a good bet. I believe this proposition is +EV as well and would have bought a piece.

Good Luck with it

PS - I have no idea what Ger said but it sounds really clever and like he knows exactly what he is talking about so I assume it is something to do with beer :-)

1% of any winning's will be given back to APAT as per the agreement. This will come from my 35%. (Help me if this is wrong.)

This 1% of the value of the winnings of your backers... so in this case 1% of 65% = 0.65% of gross winnings to be payed to APAT.

From License application rules -
5 ) Applying to become a Licensed Player demonstrates your acceptance to pay APAT a £10 license fee (whether your application proves successful or not) plus an additional 1% commission on the value of any winnings enjoyed by your Stakers.
