Default WSOP action;grab a piece of AAmaz0n

It’s become clear that I’m going to complete the Gaming Club challenge on Thursday and be playing in the WSOP main event next week. Wooooohooooo.

I made an offhand comment in one of Grannys investor threads about selling off a small percentage of my action in the main event and there seemed to be a fair amount of interest.

In making my preparations for the trip, there is just so much to do; hair, clothes, makeup, waxing (ugh), and stuff so some added capital would indeed be nice. And I made some promise about keeping Granny in hot dogs while we are in Vegas. That can’t cost too much, can it?

Anyhow, here is the deal.

Shares of 1% of my win for $100. I’ll sell some half shares if folks really want in and can’t go for a yard.

Investors responsible for their own taxes.

First 15 to post that they want in. I’ll expand this if there are some half shares, but don’t want to give up more than 15% of my win.

I’ll set up the money transfer and paperwork once I know who’s in.

Thanks,

Shauna

Since I can't go I would enjoy backing someone for something. I'll take half a share no matter what. Other half dependent on answers to the following...

1% = 1% of actual amount won? No deducts for expenses?

Do you play goot?

How often do you play/place in multitable tournies?

She is a solid memeber of the Zoo and KOTZ tourn's. Anyone one of us can tell you that she is a very solid player.

The fact that she has completeed this challange on a limited bankroll is a huge and admired accomplishment.

As for her chances of moneying at the WSOP-ME? As good as anyone.

Because this is the z00, and I conider the folks here family, no I won't be charging any kind of premium. I get far too much love and support here to take more than straight up $100 = 1% of actual win. The only thing that I won't do is take the tax burden on the part that distribute to investors, I think that is only fair.

Gaming Club is taking care of the flight and the hotel, so my expenses are all the "frillying up" that I'm doing, my partners plane ticket, and food/drink/entertainment for us - I think that stuff should all be done on my own dime and won't take a deduction for that.

I will take a half-share- will a Pokerstars transfer suffice?

cool,

I think that Stars is the preferred way to transfer; although I will be open to folks who need to do it somewhere else. I'm not real thrilled with the new Party restrictions on transfers.

I'm gettng the language together for an email to make the deals official and will have folks send that in the next few days

thanks,

Shauna

If that other site won't also facilitate the sales, let me know. We can step up and handle it for you.

Go ahead and put me down for a whole share. Look forward to cheering you on.

btw, I think this is a great idea. Be sure to enjoy yourself while there.

Congrats on getting the hands done despite your health problems.

I'll take 1% for $100.

Post a picture of yourself and I'll think about it. I think you said you would in another post and I never saw it.
