Re: Doing business - Is this enough overlay?
[ QUOTE ]
I'm thinking with "just" a 10% overlay there would be massive swings and I would need a huge BR in addition to my regular poker BR. But if I try to squeeze out a 15% or 20% overlay then I'll never get any action.
Thoughts?

I think you just answered your question there.
Seriously, I'd suggest not mentioning any %ages at the table. But when the hands flip over, if you can offer the guy an amount of money that's profitable to you, and sounds like an okay deal to him, then go ahead. You could get a lot of business from the Phil Hellmuths at your table. It'd probably be okay to mention %ages to them, since "if there weren't luck involved, they'd be rich" etc.
Sounds okay, and I might actually start doing this myself. But of course, you'd need a stable bankroll as you're already aware.
