sites should have a built in feature that goes along with transfers and it just automatically processes it and pays out the deal.

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah I wish they had such a feature. I staked a guy once in $11 dollar tourney, punk won it and got like 2k and shipped me back $11.01 for a sweet .01 profit, instead of 1k, I was on life tilt for like a month after that.

Well, I thought I was being pretty generous

$0.01 profit better than $11 dollar loss....Btw I like your blog a lot, you are a very good writer

I'm still laughing about how pathetic the responses to my post have been.

Before I posted, people observed they'd "puke" as they pressed the transfer button to send $100k to the guy that staked them.

All I did was to address the underlying thought I'm sure lots of people were having -"wow, pretty amazing the guy paid up, I wonder would I have done the same?"

My first post was clearly pretty tongue in cheek. After all it is a situation I am not in, will not ever be in, so what I would do, or would joke about doing in such a situation does not make me scum!

luckyjimm, do you play tournaments???

[/ QUOTE ]



As I've said many times in this thread, no, not at all. I don't play tournaments. This world of tournament staking, swappng percentages etc. is alien to me.

[/ QUOTE ]

Except for that one time you played a tournament, and were staked for it. But for that, it is alien to you.

Oh yeah bored out of my skull some guy who can't count who says he will pay $10 for the first half dozen people to reply to a thread, and I am like the 10th person, and he sends me the money. So I ask him like do I have to play this thing? I hate hold'em and I hate tournaments. Can't I play PLO cash instead and send you back if I win? And he says no, play the tournament. Geez, alright. I get no cards and am soon out, it is all very Zzzz. That's my one experience, yeah.

I'm broke, but a deal is a deal, you may not like it but if you agree to 70/30 you stick to your word. If you know you wont transfer the 70 when you win big, you should of worked that into the original staking. Some people here seem to be glass half empty sorts of people, I'd look at it as winning $40,000 from thin air, and that's a pretty good return.

My point was that when you agree to the deal, with no realistic expectation of winning, you don't know how you'd feel.
