Title: mylesfdo's Sunday Majors Stake.....$1.5m in GTD's......SOLD OUT!!

mylesfdo"s Sunday Majors Stake.....$1.5m in GTD"s......SOLD OUT!!





After a nice score in MiniFTOPS  Event 10 (7/1970) the other night as part of my MiniFTOPS  stake I'm looking to play the Sunday Majors  next Sunday(5th May) to be run as a separate stake.

Looking to play the following events:

Full Tilt:

$240+16 Sunday Brawl $200k GTD(ANY KO"s TO BE ADDED TO BR)
$200+16 $350k GTD

Stars:

$215 Sunday Million $1m GTD

TOTAL BUY-INS=$687

As this stake will be running at the same time as my MiniFTOPS  stake only the events above will be included.

As these are some pretty high buy-in events and I will already be entering two additional MiniFTOPS  events I really don't want to be more than 4-5 tabling at a time to keep concentration levels up hence the direct buy-ins to the Majors  rather than trying to play a range of satellites to win our way in.

Satellites are a great way to get into the events but they do take up a lot of concentration and also for me as I work Saturday nights & Sunday mornings vital relaxation time before the big events kick off.  It means that I can finish work at 11am and chill until 2.30/45pm rather than jumping straight on the lappie when I get back from work!!

I am playing pretty well in my opinion at the moment, recently final tabling a Micro  Millions Event onStars  and only the other night the 7th  place finish in MiniFTOPS Event 10.  I feel that with the way that I am playing and a little bit of luck on our side a nice score or min cashes are easily achievable in any of the above events.  I do not feel intimidated playing in them and can easily hold my own against the top players as proved in the MiniFTOPS  cash playing against multipleFTOPS  and MiniFTOPS  winners on my tables.

I am looking to sell 50% of my action in the above schedule with NO  mark up:

1%-$6.90
5%-$34.50
10%-$69.00

I will definitely be playing the Sunday Million however much of this sells and depending on % sold will pm backers regarding alternative events if the full 50% does not sell.

Backers:

Tom-10%(Payment transfered from miniFTOPS Stake)
Pat-10%(As Above)
Carl-10%(As Above)
John-5%(Paid)
ooblio-10%(Paid)
Gina-5%(Paid)

Little Bit About Me!!:

I have been playing poker for approx 15 years now starting off with 7-card stud and then progressing onto NLHE when the boom took off.

I have had some relatively nice scores for a recreational player both online & live in the UK and Vegas and have played multiple EPT, GUKPT, UKIPT and WSOP events.

I have also worked in the poker industry as Area Manager for a local pub league and as live updater/blogger for a poker website covering major live events.  Both of these jobs have enabled me to gain great knowledge of the game and see a huge variety of different styles of players playing our beloved game!!

Please note that the Venetian figures are actually incorrect as deals/savers were done and total cashes for the series were approx $25k.

I've not had any major scores onStars  as these have mainly come on Tilt  and I have included OPR links to both sites below:

Funds by Tilt  or Stars  transfer preferably...mylesfdo  on Tilt  or gumbo1  onStars..happy to accept bank transfer if helps and will pm bank dets if required.

What would you like doing with it Myles,
if up to me you can take the 300 dollar you won yesterday, play other tourneys with it
and than split the winning like stake %

which would you like to play? a sunday major and a 75 dollar tourney?

or games during the week
the bigs on stars are quite nice, there is a 162 dollar big, I would not recommend playing them on Sundays even though there have double gtd on sundays, but they awful full than. During the week the bigs are quite nice

As well full tilt normally has some nice evening games

and ipoker has 10k gtd for 55 buy in, and a nice sunday major as well as far i know

Perhaps it would be easier for the stakers to make a decision what to do if you would post what you would like, and which game(s) you would like to play of it

all fine

thks Gina....if we go with running some more tournies here are a couple of suggestions:

1) Play Milly again and Bigger $109-Total $324(Ill front diff!).......would be able to get this done on Sunday 12th if dont make day 2 of BBP Live or if not on 12th then on 26th in conjunction with SCOOP ME.

2) Play Big $22, Big $109, Big $55 all on Stars and then either Benjamin($109 $15k Gtd) or T Rex($162 $25k Gtd) on Tilt....Totals $295 with Benjamin or $348 with T Rex(would need few additional $$ shipped!!).....should be able to get this run some night this week.....prob on Thurs.

3) Play following all on Tilt.....$75($10k Gtd), Benjamin($109 $15k Gtd), $26($12k Gtd), Triceratops!!($26 $15k Gtd) & Multi-Fifty($55 $15k Gtd) with only 1 entry....Total-$291....as above prob get this done this Thurs

Im guessing option 2 with Benjamin gives us the nicest shots with no additional funds needed....any other ideas lemme know!!
