Looking for a STAKE for ACR/BCP $5k Micro Rake Race

I am looking for at least $200 total stake on ACR/BCP. I don't care if there is multiple investors.

The $5,000 micro rake race starts today and goes until 1/27/2013. First place is $500 and it pays top 150.

I will play 16-24 tables at a time for 12+ hours a day. If I need to ramp up the hours, I will do whatever it takes to lock up first place. While volume will be a huge focus, I will play great poker on top of that. My goal is to turn a profit on the $200 and to win the rake race. I will start at 10nl and move down to 5nl and 2nl as necessary.

As many of you know I have 16+ tabled on merge for 2 months. I played 140,000 hands in 2 months and put in more volume than any other reg in that time. I am 1 of about 10 winning regs on the merge network at the micro stakes. I have mostly winning sessions.

I am asking for a 60/40 split on both profits and race rake prizepool. I will offer stakeback of $200 or whatever is left from the stake if under $200.

If anyone wants to sell $200 BCP/ACR I would snap buy that before taking a stake. I really feel I am giving away free money here. I have $200 paypal if anyone wants to make that trade.

$5k Micro Race - BlackChip Poker

You can read the details of the 5k rake race above. It is for ring games only .01/.02, .02/.05, and .05/.10

give me a little more detail as to how you would do the stake. I'd be interested in doing 50, don't have bcp, so would have to be acr, or i could download bcp i guess. So, i guess i need something more concrete than "at least 200" and "would take multiple stakers". Maybe i'll see how this thread goes and maybe you can have a percentage for each staker, ie, say you get the 200, then i'd get 25% of the stake, so what percentage are you playing stakers (the 70 or 30), then i'd get 25% of whateverthat total is. Anyway, when does this start and when would you need it by? Not saying i can definately do it, but definately interested, give me details

They are the same network, so you could P2P transfer. I would put up $75. I would have to get a GDMP though, to pay you back my part of the stake Madjeck.

$200 is an amount that I am confident with. Anything more than that would insure that I didn't have to move down from 10nl to 5nl if I started off with run bad.

I am asking for 70% my way, 30% to investors. This is after stakeback. So if an investor put in $50 into a total of $200 stake and I ended up with $300 + $500 rake race then it would be $50 + .25(.30)($100 profit) + .25(.30)($500 race prize) = $95 return on $50.

i will have to think about this, 30% is a little low

I agree it is normally a low % for investor. The reason I am asking for such a high % is because it is cash games where I am a proven winner over 140,000 hands. With that much volume there is just no way to be a winner on luck alone. Also I am going to be playing 12+ hours a day for two weeks straight. I am confident I can put in enough volume in those 2 weeks to beat variance and I feel strongly about being able to place top 3 in rake race.

With that said I will lower my percentage to 60/40 with stakeback and makeup (where applicable if you chose to stake me ever in the future).

I would put up the last $75 if we can all come to the aggreement set above. I think this is a no brainer if you are willing to invst that much timei into grinding multi-tables at this level. That would put you at an even $200 stake if we all three invested. the two staking $75 would be covering 37.5% of the total 200 each and the person investing $50 would have 25% of the 200 staked.

So on a $50 dollar investment the outlook could be something like this:

$50 + (40%)(25%)($100 profit) + (40%)(25%)($500 rake race prize) = $110

a $200 investment the outlook:

$200 + (40%)($100 profit) + (40%)($500 rake race) = $440

Looks like the pieces are falling into place pretty nicely. Hope it works out great for everyone involved!!!!

I decided to give you guys a better deal at 60/40 + SB + MU.

30% is a little low, but if we could get it closer to 40%+ I would be willing to invest the initial $75 I offered. At the end this would be a good payout for all of us if we could work out the details.

I think 40% is fair and I will do that. I am also offering STAKEBACK and MAKEUP

Just to clarify with stakeback, say I ended with $180. You guys would get almost all your investment back at $45 per $50 invested. Plus you would get 40% of your piece of the rake prizepool. 19th pays $50. If I finished that low (unlikely) you would break even. This is the worst case scenario in my mind, which involves me losing overall and getting much lower on the rake race leaderboard than I anticipate.

i'm in for 50 if i can get it deposited, atm it says i have to call to confirm, so i will let you know asap.

Ok. Keep me updated

By the way I am Sharking on ACR. I got the promotional $5 so I am using that now to get used to the tables there. I will throw this $5 into the stake for free as well.

why don't you just deposit 200 dollars.. put in a bonus code for added benefits if they have that and grind it out? instead of giving people a % of your money for your hard work.. you already have been grinding on merge, so i don't understand why you would need help on here.. i dont think you actually need anybodys help, but goodluck with the promo

I dont think you read my first post. I said I prefered to buy the $200 straight up and I have paypal. Unfortunately I have not been successful finding someone to trade paypal for ACR or BCP

I am in just let me know when every one else has their funds ready to transfer and we can get this started. I will keep an eye on this thread but you can also pm or im me

$50 received from Madjek. Confirmed for 40/60 split + SB + MU. Going to play 2nl with that until I have the other $150.

I have $200 sold but have not received all the funds. I will offer the remaining investment opportunities to someone else if I do not received funds. I need to get these funds ASAP as the rake race is underway. I 6 tabled 2nl tonight with the $50 and made $1.60. I lost $4 pot with a set vs flush draw and $5 pot with AA vs AQ all in pre. J x x 10 K runout. I hope to be playing more tabled by tomorrow.

$50 Madjek Confirmed
$75 Sickread23 Not Received
$75 NateVest Not Received

I'm playing a tournament of 0.25 ... vamu it

Been 9 tabling 2nl all day waiting for the other two investors. Time is of the essence boys.

did you pm natevest, i'd try that. Also , reading the info on that , seems that you get more pts for playing in the oss2 sat., 25pts per tournament played. Are you planning on playing those? seems only the .60 ones count. Maybe i read it wrong, but on ldr board it has column for pts from tournamenst

I wasnt planning on playing the satties. Im at every single 2nl table running and ready for 5nl and 10nl when other investors come through. Ive logged 2 hours at 2nl so far. Im up to 60 from 50 start and running bad and still winning

Natevest and sickread? Whats the word?

Hope you guys can pull through. Longer we wait the harder its going to be for me to win. GRINDING MY ASS off at 2nl when i should be playing 10nl and 5nl right now
