    An Immodest Proposal

    posted by Absinthe | 2:07 PM

    So I’ve decided I want to play the main event.

    Surprise!

    If I can’t satellite in, I probably don’t deserve to. But entitlement, for better or worse, is not a requirement for entry.

    I have seats in the Stars and FTP multi-seat guarantees, a fact about which I’m cautiously optimistic. But even if I do squeak out a seat in one of those, I’d probably sell at least 10% of my action to cover costs and spread the love around.

    If the stars don’t align, there’s still a decent chance I’ll play – if I bomb out of the $1500NL event I’ll have a day or two to play sats for the Big One and there’s bound to be a fair amount of desperate last-chance money on those tables. But I will positively guarantee I’ll play if I can sell 20%. But I can only sell 20% if you buy.

    $200 buys you a 1% slice. If I win (and I’m only 2500:1!) that’d be worth $100K. Also you’d be paying for another pair of boots on the ground, so to speak, since I couldn’t not obsessively update until I was knocked out. If you’re remotely interested, you can email me or comment here.
