Default Re: On buying accounts and why you should care

Im not much of a math guy, ill assume all the numbers are right etc.

Either way, it was always a given that even a good player being 'replaced' with a better player would always hit your bottom line equity wise.

Fwiw, i dont think it should be allowed; but i understand the reasons why it is and if it is allowed and as such i cant really blame people for doing it.

Also, ive never understood the mentality of someone who sells their account like this - i mean how much do they make out of a deal, is it a one off fixed payment or a % or what?

I dont play enough large buy in tourneys, but the one time i went deep in a sunday major playing the last few tables was one of the greatest moments of poker for me which i would have never sold off.
