Well, if you look at this as a variance reducing 'system' or whatever you want to call it, then it works for both the investor and the player. The investor absorbs the variance and the player gets paid for every tournament, never having to endure a downswing.

The problem is however, that I would not give up 50% ROI to achieve this. And a 50% tax on no variance is absurd.

I think you would have a lot more interest if you 'charged' 10% or something reasonable.

And with monitoring players, I've had a 35 buyin downswing. Would I be kicked off of this thing? I've had many 10+OOTM streaks, am I out?

If so, I guess I'd join, wait for my first huge downswing, get kicked out and stick you guys with that bill.
