As you all know (or some of you don't) we are having an Official BRM Christmas Home Game on 22nd of December. It has a guaranteed prizepool of $52 at the moment and some mobsters pledged to donate some cash for the prizepool too (though i haven't heard from them in a while )
Anyways tourney has a buy-in of $0.11. 2 rebuys & 1 add-on will be available too. Buy-in is certainly not the biggest in the world, but maybe some of you do not have any cash in your accounts, so Santa Claus Pochui is coming to town i have decided to stake up to 5 players with the $0.11 buy-in. have in mind this: - you will only get initial buy-in of $0.11, no money for rebuys & addon, so you better play your A game. - 50/50 profit share so anything you will win "will be taxed with 50% income tax"
If you like the deal you can ask for the stake. as i mentioned already- up to 5 players will be staked. in case there will be more who wish to be staked, i will decide myself who are those "lucky 5" . priority goes to those who can provide some details about themselves, why they can't earn the buyin by playing freerolls, bank account number, jokerstars id and password

POCHUI...This is a very generous offer from you to some poor poker type who cant afford the 0.11c buy in. You have a heart of gold and I hope that you get something out of this in that your stakers go all the way to the top five spots. You will have to let us know who they are so we can either rail them or have a go at taking your and their money off of them in the tourney!!! HAppy Christmas.

i thought that was me

Posted by takingdrugs: any ways il send it to you $5 towards the pot on friday
cool will update the prize info now- you never fail to keep your word
------------
Posted by takingdrugs: but rest assured i will see to it personally that none of your stakings make that final table
you will mess up my business plan
------------
Posted by takingdrugs: no it not its slave labour is what it is, really do the maths. exploitation of fellow mobsters.
in reality the offer is not very attractive, but i said anyone should take it only if they have no other way to join the tourney, imo 50% of winnings is better than 0%.

actually they will only need to get into top 10 places to be guaranteed of a prize: remember that BrM $50 is gonna be split in equal $5 prizes for top 10 players. sure if there is gonna be any players that will take the offer- i will post the info who they are, so you can take their scalp

Posted by Nightmare161: but why would you need someones bank account details
to do a double check if they really do not have money for $0.11 buy-in

why not

just as Mysik86 told it's: manpochui. nice to see you want to become a donor of our Christmas tourney ship funds my way, and i will update the post about the current prizepool.
i don't know why can't you register- tourney is open for registration, already 11 players registered, try to open the tourney lobby, maybe info just didn't update in your screen- you should be ok- post with the latest

You are doing a lot for this game pochui, congratulations on the iniciative and also on this new effort to turn this event memorable to the BRM community. I’m still not registered at this tourney, and at this time I still don’t have money on my PS account to register, but I will make a deposit and I will participate on the game. It’s just that I’m facing some sicknesses over the last days and I still haven’t had time for that operation. Hope you can help 5 good fellow mobsters and, for me, they can occupy the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th places in the end of the game, as long as they leave the first place for me

pochui ,,the bussinesman
Thanks uhhcallmi, and I also agree with what you write, pochui is doing great business. Having sponsored players on the game he is also entering – receiving 50% of their profits - increases his chances of winning some nice bucks, besides the prize he can get by himself. It’s a win-win situation, in which sponsored ones feel happy for having someone paying the buy-in for them with the chance of getting a prize and, in case they do, the sponsor will feel even more happy for having done it.

Hey Pochui, Im Wickedcid on Pokerstars cant wait for the game, I just sent my request to join the club. If possible I wouldn't even mind staking 5 players as well, split the prizes 50-50 with the players as well, and have more competition to play against. As long as they have no bankroll and i want them to prove in some way they are skilled enough to deserve it, let me know if this works, Wickedcid

ok glad to have you onboard. regarding your offer- at the moment there is actually no one who want to take the offer, so whenever/ if i stake 5 players then you and Ronin Harper are the next ones on the list i guess. will inform if something change (if you reall want to get rid of the money and get good karma by doing so- you can consider donating this money for the prizepool, especially if no one shows interest in being staked..)
