Title: Bigfella's Vegas Trip (SOLD OUT)
Post by: Bigfella42 on April 21, 2013, 21:36:13 PM
Hi all.

I'm off to Vegas on 13 June for two weeks. Planning on playing plenty of poker and the following events are definites in my schedule:

14 June $1,000 WSOP seniors event.

I will be one of the youngest players in this and I never lost to my grandad so I'm entering this full of enthusiasm!

17 June $1,000 Binions NL 2 day event

30,000 starting stack nice deepstack event.

20 June $1,500 WSOP shootout

I've played this event twice before. A shootout format so win your first table and you've cashed. My 2 attempts have seen me finish 2nd twice (aaargghh) so it's been close. I like the long structure of these.

22/3 June $400 Venetian Deepstack
This has 2 starting days so should be a big prizepool. Gives us a final shot at a low buy in.

About me.  

http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=r&n=90663

Link to my Hendon Mob above.  I've made 3 APAT final tables, finalled a Caesars deepstack, and had a good run in the DTD £500k guaranteed last year. Don't play online enough to have any meaningful stats. 

Proposal

Total buy ins are $3900 happy to sell 20% with no mark up. Playing these regardless of whether I sell or not. Will be doing updates on here to keep you informed.  There is a very small chance that I may switch the Binions event to another $1k as there is a seniors event at Caesars the day before and if I did play that and make day 2 I'd have to miss the Binions event. So any backing is made with the knowledge that this could switch to another $1k at any venue.

Suggesting a simple 1.50 exchange rate  and will return at the same, as long as the rate on 1 July has not dropped below 1.4 or over 1.6 in which case will return at the quoted rate. Will use this link to verify  http://www.xe.com/currencyconverter/convert/?Amount=1&From=GBP&To=USD.

So 1% is £26
2% is £52
5% is £130.

Payment by bank transfer to be received by end of May.


Curlarge 5% PAID TYVM
Myles    2% PAID TYVM

Sugar_Free 1% PAID TYVM
Phil_TC 1% PAID TYVM
Joker161 4% PAID TYVM

Fandango 1% PAID TYVM
Logie66 5% PAID TYVM
Sharplea 1%

Thanks all now sold out. Those list of stakers would make an awesome sit n go!!

Seems fair that we should have a piece of each other. If I take 4% that means I"m giving you your money back! Is that OK?

Joe.
