Default Re: What\'s a good deal?

The most straightforward way to handle this it to have him pay for the seat. The fair amount would be (Total Prize Pool) / (Number of Players). If you do this, I don't see any justification for taking a share of his winnings, as he is giving you the full fair value for your seat.

Edit: I missed the fact that the starting stack sizes will be different (this seems like a very odd structure). This obviously makes it harder to assign a fair value for the seat. Perhaps take the above formula and multiply it by (His Stack Size) / (Average Stack Size). Or just do the 50/50 split to make it easy.
