Complete Staking Revamp

[sickread23]

thats not a bad idea it gives the staker options

honestly don't get this @ all. I think that the points in escrow 4 insurance purposes is not very well thought out. 1st, say someone stakes a player for $5 and requires a player to put up 600 points. 600 points in relation to a min cash is nothing. If a player plays and cashes in a $5 tournament, he/she will @ minimum get 10-15 $$$. So in reality, what good does it do to have 600 points as insurance.

You are correct, its nothing. However, it's something.......

Would you stake someone $5 and 0 points OR
Would you stake someone $5 and they put 1200 points?

You might be more inclined if you made them put up 1200 points in case they run off.
