Re: WSOP Main Event -trading percentages
[ QUOTE ]
I am also playing in the Main Event, and was wondering if it is allowed to trade percentages in said tournament.

I just got an advanced draft copy of Annie Duke's new book. In it she talks about trading shares in major tournaments. She says that she and Chris Fergusson have a long time standing agreement to trade 5%, so that she got 5% of the first prize when he won the main event.
She also says that she plays on her own money in cash games, but that she is totally backed in tournaments, never using her own money. Her backer is a top pro (not her brother). Any guesses? Answer below in white:
