Imagine you won a B&M qualifier for the WPT/WSOP and got a 10K ticket, etc...

Given the high variance in any MTT with a large field, lets say you decide to sell the ticket at a discount to lock in a profit... what would be an appropriate percentage of the buy-in? 70-80%?

Is it possible to do a combo deal where you sell the ticket at a deep discount, 25% or less but are significantly staked in the player.. say 35-50% ...

Anyway just curious, have others done deals like this or something else entirely...

Pretty sure you can't sell your WSOP entry. If you win more than one online they sell it for you is usually the deal.
