Who wants a sweat in HSP next season.

Hey all, just a quick little poll. Hypothetical, do you feel that you would be more interested in watching High Stakes Poker if you were able to have a piece of the action? By this there are 2 ways it could be done. 1) A player on the show was to sell shares of him/her self ala Fossilman in the main event, or 2) A player on the show was to book the action in a percentage up to a certain amount. All money would of course need to be posted prior to filming.

Just curiosity, would anyone on here be interested in either of the two options.

you're talking to poker players, who wouldn't find it more interesting.

He said in another thread that he was in HSP this coming season.

Mod note: Interesting idea to talk about, but using this forum to solicit a stake is non cool

Also, does anybody really think Randy Jensen is worth a stake in this game?

I was getting to that, I just wanted to make sure I had all the parameters straight first.

Didn't say I was gonna be on,I said in my interveiw. Slightly different.

You're correct, I mistook the "interview" as the background for TV kind, not the "get on the show" kind. My apologies.

I wasn't actually looking for a stake. I don't even know if I am gonna be on the show at this point. But I have noticed that there are a few(lot) of Randy Jensen detractors on here so there may be some people who feel confident betting against me. There may also be some others who wanted a piece of something that they would never be able to be a part of and this may be an interesting way to do it.

Mostly if I did try to get a piece out it would be because I wanted to have a higher bankroll for the game. I will play on my own money that is no problem. But one of the producers questions was if I buy i for 100K (what I was planning on) how would it effect me if there were 3-5, million dollar stacks on the table. Apparently there are a few others that are gonna really blast it up next season. If that is the case it would be desireable to have a higher BR for the big double up.

If even throwing the question out is not cool then I will remove the post if you want.

Nah- I think under the terms you explained it's fine.
