Wondering if there is any interest in buying a piece of me in this on Sunday?

There are some sick tournaments on pokerstars.fr sometimes. I've been playing on there for a little while with mixed results so far.

On Sunday they are running a tournament with a 1,000 euro buy in and a 100,000 euro guarantee.

Elky is playing and Isildur and some other random French Stars pro. But I'm thinking, how many good players can there be on pokerstars.fr?

So I'm thinking of playing it but I need to sell some action as sensibly I can't just take a shot at a 1k euro tournament.

So I want to sell around 40% of my action for a really small markup like 1.04

Would anyone be interested in taking a piece?

I thought about making it part of a bigger package rather than just one shot, but I guess I would have to put a bigger markup on it if I did.

Not sure if anyone would be interested but thought I would just put this out there and see...

Feel free to ask any questions.

Will take the money in $ on Stars (preferred) or FT or Cake? and lock in the exchange rate so it is the same for stakes and winnings.
Any major payout will have to be in Stars most likely.

I'll take 6% Phil. I can ship on stars - how much is that in $$

[Raisindye]

How much are you willing to sell, and what's a 5% block going to cost in our neck of the woods?

[philhux]

Don't send any money yet fellas!

I'd like to sell 40% and possibly up to 45%

I will work out the dollar amounts per % when I have a moment later.

I'm still thinking about it, scoping out the lobby and seeing what satellites are running for it.

So here is the information. The tournament is 1000 euros - 950+50

The rate on xe.com right now is 1 euro to $1.449, so that is the rate I would lock in.

so 1000 euros x 1.04 = 1040 x 1.449 = 1506.96

1% is $15.07
5% would be $75.35

Will decide tomorrow night if I'm going to play.
