I like your tournament selection you have some that have a shot of a decent flip with final table appearence. You've done good as my horse in past, we'll forget about the Wynn though (jk) I think that cash game made up for it (plus some!). You know when I got extra funds I don't mind investing in you. Whenever you decide to start playing the listed tournaments count me in for $150 for 10% raw action (give me the family discount not the Jon Friedberg price ) After you rip these tournaments apart then we can talk jacked up prices

Like Jon, I'd go in for $50-100. Let me know if you prefer PayPal or I should send a check.
I would like to know the terms -- you suggested no markup, Jon suggested 15%, I'd say at least mark up to $15 per 1% to make the math easy --before I send money.

Thanks again for all the input. I've already had two locals walk up and hand me $100 each towards it so off to a great start. I don't want to keep on readjusting the rules of the buying amounts and don't mind doing the percentages, so I'll stick with the $14.75 per one percent, no mark-ups. As far as the add-ons just asked about, I think I got it all covered when writing down my tournament selection, if I missed any, I'll pay for that myself without worrying about adjusting everything. Keep in mind I'm trying to keep this capped around 50% so part of the money is already coming from me, what's a few extra bucks.
Off now to send PM's to some that have spoke up above and get that moving along. As fast as this is going we should be able to get this started a lot sooner than I thought!

Not sure if I did state it above but in answer towards two questions I have seen so far, I am looking to pay for about 50% of the buy ins out of my own pocket...

Wow, it took less than 24 hours. But I have hit the 50% mark, 50.49% to be exact. Granted it will take a few days at the very least to get the stake money gathered. In total, 12 people thru here and thru my Facebook list have added $744.75.
It already was quite the learning experience as I have never done anything like this (aside from the one tournament stake, etc...). Next time, definite straight up amounts, $15 would of been much easier. No big deal, calculators will make it the pay offs easy. Debating on how to now communicate with the wide variety of people that have sent me money. I think the best way is to make a list of all the emails to be able to send a mass message with any updates on when my next tournament will be and the results.
