Paying It Forward

My son, Sean, and I have been talking alot the past few days about "paying it forward"...especially since the holiday season is quickly approaching.  Additionally, I have a had a really good couple of weeks in the poker room and the sportsbook....and now it's time to give back.

In honor of my son, the holiday season, and my recent good fortune...I am offering up stakes on Poker Stars.  I put $60 on PS today, although I have never played there, to share with the regulars, lurkers, donkeys, etc.

STAKE RULES
1. Terms are 50/50 split after fees have been reimbursed.
2. MUST play a tourney...no satellites.
3. MUST post bust out HH....we all need a good laugh.
4. MUST not be a douche regarding terms or anything else.
5. No requirements on number of posts....just don't be a douche.
6. I reserve the right to stake whoever I want.
7. Any winnings sent back to me will be redistributed into the pool.
8. Don't ruin it for others or you will be outed.
9. 5+.50 MAX on the buyin
10. Post that you have received and when you are playing as I want to watch when I can.


Go Terps!
Go Phillies!

THANKS SEAN!!!!

i would love to play the 15k guarantee ($5.50). starts in 5 minutes but has a 10 min late registration.

if i cant play that i think itd be a blast playing  either the $2.20 $3k Turbo at 13:40 and/or the $2.20 quintiple shootout at 15:15

cool idea and thanks for giving OT an opportunity to make a big score! i understand if its too late. good luck everyone!

I would like the chance to earn your money back that I lost yesterday...So if you give me a go in the $2.20 Turbo at 13:40 stars time I will ship back all profits unless I final table and then it will go to your origional 50/50 + SB.

I'm out.  I shipped the $3.92 that I cashed back to you. No reason to chop up $1.70.  Just give out an extra stake.  Thanks for the chance.  It was fun.
