Stake this guy, $50 gets you $5,000 (crosspost) imo
 

I can't find a Poker Theory mod anywhere to move this here to BBV, but I think it belongs here...

Cliff notes:

Guy was 50/50 staked for $50, ran it up to 10k in a few sessions, thinks giving the staker 5k is too much. When asked how he ran it up so fast, he answered:

I won a 5 dollar heads up. Won a hand of black jack. Won a 55 dollar 10 man sit n go. Played 1/2 heads up got the total up to 600. Played 3/6 heads up to 2000. 5/10 heads up to 2500. 10/25 heads up to 5900. 25/50 heads up to 10k.

BBV potential IMO, poker theory not so much

lol.

fwiw, this guy seems like a douche for not shipping 5k back.

When I saw the blackjack thing, I started thinking it might be a shaundeeb gimmick/level, but i dunno he seems pretty serious

I'm interested, tell me more about this hypothesis of yours please

Re: Stake this guy, $50 gets you $5,000 (crosspost) imo
 

I'm of two minds either the stakes deserves all 10k back, or he deserves 0.

FWIW you were an absolute jerk in that thread. Just because you don't believe the backstory doesnt mean he's worth attacking. It's not impossible for someone to martingale 4 or 5 HU matches. His post count does not give you a right to ridicule him at your leisure.

I like how he said it was over several days/sessions to make it more believable lol

Please, spare me your insults and go back to telling rediculous stories about things you wished really happened (which happens all of the time here, so you can stop with the "why would I lie to impress people" thing). Either that or you're a gimmick account, the fact that you came straight to the PT forum with your nonsense makes this possible.

You want to a serious answer? You back yourself using your make-believe $5k, so that way you can keep all of your make-believe profits for yourself.

EDIT: Also, I almost forgot - worthless without graph. Thanks a bunch.

In fact here's a better answer: try the search function for staking arrangements, or googling it something like that. As someone who's done a fair amount of staking, you might want a more credible story before posting online. Peoples BS filters here are a little sharper here than you might be used to, maybe try pocketfives.com.

I'm pretty much done here unless you show up with a graph or something, but I think we both know that's not happening. Good like trying to get $50 out of someone.

If he asks for a stake, THEN you can flame away.

AbreuTime, his post count has nothing to do with the ridicule and flames he's getting. Also you equating his claim to "martingaling 4 or 5 HU matches" isn't a very good comparison at all, especially when you undercount it.

If you want to be an white knight/apologist for him have at it, but he's still FOS. You might be better off explaining to him that you have to pay your staker what you agreed to.
