$1500 WSOP Event 48 - PLO8

<< < (6/9) > >>

Robbiebox:
Michael will you post a link to your OPR?

Riddled:
Sorry for the delay in getting back to this, I"ve had accountancy exams recently and they sort of consumed my life.

In response to the queries I don"t pay many online mtts, mainly plo cash (This year I have played about 35k+ hands profitably).

My stars ID is MichaelPerry

Saturday I"ll try and get a schedule in but I"m also playing the 150 PLO in Aspers this Sunday.


Just to clarify I will also be playing this event now whatever backing I get,

15% gone.

Robbiebox:
Hi Michael,
Your OPR stats don"t really back up the edge you claim. Do you have HM or Ptracker cash graphs that you can post?

Also your numbers are at best confusing and at worst just plain wrong.


Buyin = $1500

You sell 70% of your action, so backers send you $1050

If you cash for $3000, then you should be returning $2100 to your backers (70% of your winnings)

With your method, you are returning their stake of $1050, and then splitting the profit 70/30, which effectively means you are selling your action at a premium.

If you bink a massive cash, then it becomes a lot less significant, but if you only min cashed, then we"re talking about a $400 swing.

Or am I missing something here ?

my thoughts as well... i would be considering to buy a piece, but only if the numbers are correct.

Obviously I don"t know you, so it"s hard to judge you as a player. But your results aren"t good enough to justify the markup that you are charging this way. (Again, I might be wrong as I don"t know you and I have no clue of what your online PLO results are; I can only judge from the live results on Hendon Mob).

What makes you confident you have a decent edge against the field?

Online results? if so what are they?

Do you play online cash? If so what stakes? any graphs?

Live results other than the apats?

Michael, I might have been interested in taking a bit but I"m afraid I"m still a bit confused.

I don"t understand how you came to the $735 figure. Could you explain it please? That amount is 70% of $1,050, but that wouldn"t make sense, so I"m not sure how you got to that answer.

Perhaps you could give a couple of illustrations of amounts returned for different-sized wins and how you calculate them, so we understand what is being offered.

+1 to all of the above.....would be interested in 5% if on an equal profit split.....in my staking/backing experiences unequal profit share usually comes into play when horse is selling 100% of themselves on a make up deal.

Riddled:
OPR stats aren"t really that relevant due to the limited sample size (100 over 3 years), though I have been speaking to Dave H and he has explained that my stats aren"t perhaps as reassuring verifiable as they should be for this kind of staking event.

I have reconsidered my position and will sell a small amount at spot for those who do wish to have a flutter (including people who have already backed me.)

Apologies if this thread has been a bit amateur, I have obviously never sought staking before...
