OK I"m thinking it"s just me that doesn"t know this but what does BAP stand for?

Yes No....I"ve been hoping someone would ask so I wouldn"t look ignorant...Oh...wait!

Buy a piece.

BAP stands for BlackCountry Added Percentile. It"s the premium that can be added to any stake request based on the fact that the stakee is or has been a member of the Black Country Poker Club. Length of service obviously increases this premium percentile, as does if you have an APAT Stud bronze medal.

So not to derail particular staking threads, the guidelines indicate we should state the premium in terms of mark up (ie 1.1 etc) and i think this is the best way of being open about the premium being charged on the stake, whilst negating the need to state whether the return includes stake back or not. I also think it makes the 1% calculation easier that goes to APAT.
Current threads are stating in terms of 100% staking but with60/40 return etc. personally think the board should have a universal way of stating the premium (I would use decimal method).
I mean 60/40 on a 100% stake is a HUGE markup (about 1.67) and established pros would struggle to sell at that rate and I think stakers should know this before this board gets established.

This is the first time for me and APAT to ask for staking, so was not sure what to ask for. This was a kind of lets post and see what response I get. I and others will learn what is expected in terms of %/decimals and will ask for staking accordingly. You are right about the mark up but can I point out this is at half the price. You could say that I have been lucky, to get staked at that mark up, with me being first it has got a novelty factor to it. As the bigger players come along I"m sure a request like this will not get taken up.

You sold out so fair enough.
But realistically I think you should have sold at spot. 299 mtts over 6 years is tiny Wayne, really should unlock that opr too.
As Des said though plenty of people on here will know your game so that + novelty probably swung it, i doubt a newer less known member would have sold any tbh.
The half price thing doesn"t really work either, it just means the tourn will have twice as many runners. Though admittedly the bigger stuff on Stars should be quite a bit softer during the wsop.

If you"ve played a ton on other networks you should pot all your opr"s too.
