So I've decided to sell up to 50% of my action in four different 10k omaha and mixed events this WSOP. I will be selling @1.3 markup with a minimum purchase of $1040, or 4% of my gross cashes combined during those 4 events. The four championship bracelet events will be the 10k omaha 8 or better limit on june 6th, the 10k Dealers Choice on June 14th, the 10k PLO on June 22nd and the 10k PLO8 or better on June 28th. I have had some people locally (and some around from online cash games) approach me to buy pieces of me in these bigger events.I have a major ($200+buy in) title in all Omaha variants and dealers choice too. I have been coming to Rio for the WSOP just about every year since 2005 and have only sold action twice in the past there and I was a small winner for the investors. I've been primarily a cash game player, but in recent years started getting more serious about tourneys and working on my live poker tourney game. I typically grind cash games and side events during in June in Vegas and play around 3-7 wsop bracelet events. Last year I played 5 events total, with 3 cashes, one final table ($2500 Big Bet mix) and one win in the $1500 Dealers Choice event (which i pretty much led wire to wire for 3 days). I have one other final table in the $5000 PLO8 where i finished a disappointing 9th. I've had some close calls in deep runs in the past but my game is so much stronger now as well as being versed in most all of the games.I have over 300k in wsop cashes but I have made much more than that playing online cash games. I've spent countless hours studying the game with other pros, watching poker videos, reading books, going over math simulations and working on my health and well being. I'm sure most of you already know I take this profession very seriously and do not waste my time partying or drinking or being a degen during the WSOP. I will also be on the very full schedule this summer as I plan to play all the Omaha and mixed events from $3000 and under at WSOP plus some good side events at GN, Aria, Venetian when I have time. I am extremely focused and motivated to make good decisions, run deep and play the best poker of my life!
To give you an idea of what to expect this is 2018 numbers from the exact events I am going to play.
08 min cash $14,912 and winner 417k
Dealers Choice min cash $15,136 and winner 293k
PLO min cash $14,966 and winner 1.018 million
PLO8 min cash $15,000 and winner 567k
Now I have known and played with many of the players who have won these specific tourneys in the past 10 years or so and I can honestly say I can play with any of them and feel very confident in my game and skill set. I have only played in one 10k omaha or mixed event in my life and I really should have taken more shots in these over the years. This WSOP they made all the 10k omaha and mixed events with an even BETTER structure and more play on the last two days which bodes very well for my game. I believe the 4th day and final table will be televised on Poker Go. 4 day tourneys for all the 10k events in new, they always used to be 2 or 3 days.
I know I could get many long time players and friends who would vouch for my integrity, honestly, passion for the game and my edge vs these fields. I have played poker for many years and played professionally since 2003. Yes, the 10k events are quite tough and filled with some of the best players around, but you also have great players (usually NL specialists) who may be great at their game, but are exploitable to me in these particular games. I also know some great poker minds who are going to invest in my WSOP package so that makes me even more confident.
Now, you SHOULD NOT invest if you dont recognize the variance in tournaments. I could play my heart out, play very well and just run poorly in key spots late in the 4 events and just go 0-4. Roughly 85% of the players who enters these will go home with nothing. I will try even harder to play my best, especially when i know i have friends and family supporting me and having a vested interest in my results.
Do invest if you have faith in me and are willing to gamble a little for a sweat, or maybe a larger piece even. Last time I sold anything of myself at wsop was almost 10 years ago at a higher markup and it sold out within 48 hours and everyone made money (not much profits, but so close to huge summer)
Sorry for the long post, but I've never done this on here before and I probably should have posted this a while ago. I already have my flight/car/hotel booked and will be staying at the Rio and leaving monday morning June 3rd.
