obviously not saying you're crazy, just saying that lines like these are high variance.

hello kids,

i am going to vegas in june but i was only planning on staying for a couple of weeks just playing cash games. then i talked to some friends who talked about getting a stake for the main event. i am just not interested in ponying up $10k for it and i dont want to spend hours and hours satelliting in. so if anyone is interested in a lucrative staking deal, let me know.

CAMEL!

CHECK YOUR PM'S!

Can any regulars that play 2/4 on stars tell me what they have me as for vpip/preflop raise (NoTalentTom for those not in the know)? I always see people post that they are 21/15 or something and i have them as 15/11. Maybe my pokertracker is defunct or something.

If I purchase a WSOP Event buyin w/ FPPs on Stars do they just deposit the money into my account or are there other hurdles to jump through?

[/ QUOTE ]

For the non-ME events:

They give you 85% into your account right when you buy it. The other 15% is put into your account after confirmation that you actually played. The conversion rate is worse than concierge though, from what I remember.

[/ QUOTE ]

Conversion rate is the same as concierge 62fpp/$1. Assuming you play the events and get the last 15% of course.
