T-god, i know you said you weren't bothered by it but in all the gambling circles i run around in "staking" means you don't have to pay the person back. you can stake with some kind of a make-up clause or something but it certainly not the default.
if you want to give a fellow gambler money that you want paid back the word for it is loan. at least thats how it is with everyone i know.
loan, they pay back the loan plus a little extra.
stake, if they show a profit, or the staking period is over, they return the stake (or all the money remaining if it is less than the initial stake) plus a percentage of the profits.
