Wow, thats a very nice story / very nice offer. Would like to see that Jack accept it and make nice profit out of it. Anyway I keep my fingers crossed for Jack that the downswing ends soon.

OK - well, I assume at this point you're probably not interested, as you weren't inclined to take the offer to begin with and you also now have a ticket into a big game..
At any rate, I'll leave this offer open for another 24hrs, it's currently 23:52GMT (as per BRM time) so I'll say up until midnight tomorrow then.
After that I *MAY* consider staking a couple others here (50 each) or I may consider the roulette wheel, who's to say.

Jess, seriously, Party roulette's been my thing lately. I'd say leave the staking for a while and walk the walk... the wheel is fokin'tastic!! It only takes patience and a sharp eye to spot the leaks. Not so hard to make some green there.

Hey Jess! Sorry for the belated reply.
I shut Poker out for a week now, including BRM. Had to take a break from all the negative thinking and wasn´t yet ready for a lobotomy. Maybe later, who knows?
Had I been running anywhere near normal, I would have accepted your offer as a "challenge", and for some fun. Considering this just wasn´t the case, I humbly decline, but not without again expressing my appreciation for your kind and generous offer. And like you said, I´ve now got a $215 entry, doesn´t get much higher than that on Party. So I can blow that one all by myself.
That being said....
Did you go for the "leaky" roulette? And what does that mean anyways? Leaks?

LOL @ Spotting the leaks on roulette.. yeah I have no idea, I am guessing it was a joke I hope so any way !
To update: I blew the lot playing BJ, so there, you should have just taken it, I told you I was just gonna blow it being a d**k anyway.
Haha, but seriously, I understand why would wouldn't take the offer, I probably wouldn't either.
But yeah, it's all gone now, I was killing it playing $10BJ and decided to move up to $50 BJ, first the dealer got BJ 3 times in a row, then I got 10-10 on a $50 bet and I accidentally hit "double" and busted lmao. And that was about all she wrote.

Why you played BlackJack. Besides winning a couple of dollars playing with fun money i have never made it so far to win in any online casino i have tried so far. Real life casinos is another story

That´s a great story. Even worse than what i thought I would get to hear. Accidentally hit "double"...lol
Hope you had some fun with it at least.

IslandJack --> What's that 215$ ticket you're talking about? How did you get it?
Wish you luck on the tables when you decide to use it!
They run $2 qualifiers on Party for a $15 entry to the 50-seat frenzy on Party. Just buy once and if you make the first hour, do an add-on, unless you´re well ahead. No need for rebuys, people throw their chips at you if your hands hold up.
Unfortunately The 50-seat runs on saturdays, and I usually never play on that day. Field usually about 1.000 players for 50 seats, but they play it like a rebuy. (they seem to forget they can´t buy back in... )
Worth a try for sure if you can get the entry for $2-$4. It´s definitely the best way to get in on Party IMO.
Not going to play it right now. Running too bad. I´ll save it for whenever my game gets going again. Don´t know how the 200k runs, but I assume it´s kind of like the Million, as they reduced that one to every 3 months now.

Haha yeah. I was down to $60 at this point (including the $50 in the bet) and I was trying to decide whether to split my 10s or stand on 20 (I really know F-all about Bj, first time I've even played it in about 10yrs) and I accidentally hit double with the laptop trackpad, I went to move the cursor but it click instead lol - no ace, scored a 9 lol, busted on 29 like a champion.

edit: Duh - I meant EXCLUDING the $50 in the bet.
