Hello all, my name is Stuart Ward and I am running a staking opportunity for 2 events in the World Championships of Amateur Poker over the easter weekend.
I have played APAT since 2009 and have made 2 final tables, including one victory in the European Championships, and have also won a PLO hi/lo side event and cashed in numerous other APAT events. I am also representing England for the 3rd time this week, which is the reason for my following proposal.
I am selling 100% of myself for the world championships and proposing that any profits are split 50/50 after stakeback to my backers.
I realise that this is not an attractive proposal for some, but i feel I am very good value in the fields for both the HORSE event on Saturday and the main event, which i will be attacking from day 1b.
So for action in this, 10% is £16.50.
Already booked in :
Ger Smyth - 20% (paid)
Steve Rodderick - 20%(paid)
Derrick Andrews - 10% (paid)
Brian Harland - 10% (paid)
David Pilkington - 10%
James Barber - 10%
Tom Silkboer - 10%
David Amos 10% (paid)
This leaves 10% still available which i am now opening up to APAT, as if i do get a win, i would prefer that APAT saw some of the money as well.
Can i please point out that as i said before, some might not find this an attractive proposition, and I understand that, but i ask that you refrain from discussing it on the thread at this time, as I am not going to change it!
I will try and keep as well updated as i can on this thread as i am playing, but most of the backers are going to be there anyway!
Money will be by bank transfer preferably, although cash on the day will do. Nothing though stars/tilt sorry.

Reserved for updates.

Sorry guys, I have had to drop out of playing today due to a family issue. Will sort out money for everyone soon

Hope everything works out Stu - the money is secondary and not important......

Thanks Ger.
Des has got me un regged for it, and James Barber has the money, so it will be coming back.

Can"t say it any better than that mate.

Morning guys!!
Was thinking yesterday, I haven"t paid this back!! Am recovering the money from James shortly and was wondering if you all fancied letting me substitute the Coventry main event in June into the place of the WCOAP main (obv with the other 25 notes returned to you lot) on the same deal?
What"s your thoughts? If people aren"t keen, no problems, I will take up the % left myself.
Let me know :)

Woteva ;D ;D

Ok with me, i am 80% certain will be playing so if you want share costs just let me know, can"t commit 100% yet as needed to get Susan sorted first.
-
Sounds good to me mate, just finalising my time off at work :) discuss Saturday?
-
I think we should just put it in a pot and play Pai Gow for it.
On the other hand we could go for your plan, whichever you prefer really ;D
