Default Going to WSOP

So I am going to play in the World Series of Poker in May.... Just wanted to see if anyone wanted to stake me in....

Pretty much gambling with me....

Say you throw in $100 that is 10% of the buy in so I will give 10% of my earnings... I want to get staked at least 50%

So say you stake $300 you will get 30% of my earnings

Of course if I lose then you lose with me.

The buy in is $1000

And of course you can do less like $50 and get 5%...


Usually this tournament has a big prize pool... First place is usually around $850,000.00

Also anyone staking me in will get a notarized statement so you don't have to worry about and shady shit... Plus wsop.com will show you what place I got and if I won any money.

So far I have $200 staked in...

If $100 gets 10% and then you have 10 people each give 100 totalling 1000 then you will get nothing if you win correct ?

Or am i doing something wrong with the math ?

I am only offering up to half the buy in....$500...So that leaves me with 50% of the earnings

I would suggest giving some background on your experience with poker. EX: How long you've been playing. Have you played in any tournaments? Won any? Etc.

I have played for about a year and a half... I am usually a cash game player... 8/16 limit hold em.... 5/150 big game in casino arizona... I also play 5/10 NL in Vegas... I have played about 25ish live tournaments.... I've cashed in about 17 with 2 wins and 6 final tables.....I also play almost everyday on full tilt poker... usually play MTT and S&g's.... Also a regular in the NL cash games.... Started with $50 back a year ago and have cashed out about $3300 from there.
