Default Re: backing

2+2 should have a sticky or an article on backing. The problems that Thunder Keller's deal with Scott Fishman caused him are illustrative that a young player, no matter how bright, doesn't know the in's and out's of staking deals that veterans have learned through sorry experience.

Personally I would never stake anyone 100%, they would have to have a reasonable amount of their money at risk.

And I don't understand how you get from 2000 in EV to 200 in EV with a 30% tax rate. Shouldn't it be 1400 in EV?
