    Hi guys, I have been wondering for a while now why one of the best high stake Online cash game players in the world that plays on full tilt poker almost every day is not part of the full tilt poker team? I truly do believe that if he really wanted this he could of made it happen by now but i was really curious if any of u out there have thought about this also. Hell ive seen Ivey say that he is the Top Online cash game player.

    Might not be able to work out a good deal on one end or the other? I'm sure Durrrr's had many sponsorship options, just might not have found one that best suits him yet.

    this was discussed somewhere (sorry no idea where) with durrr and omgclayaiken and i believe they dont have sponsorship deals due to the fact it would conflict future sponsorship deals that could be more lucrative.

    like waiting and getting more notoriety will increase the potential value of a deal.

    I would think playing rake free would be the biggest perk of all but who knows

    Durrrr's likely waiting to ship a huge televised mtt to gain publicity and snag a multi million dollar sponsorship rather than signing now.

    At the stakes they play the rake is such a tiny, tiny % of their over all results it's truly negligible. The rake is like a tax on the winner of the pot, but because it's capped and the stakes they play so high, 99%+ of the money they wager is "tax free" because it exceeds the rake cap.
