Message: [QUOTE="SoCalJD, post: 1213769, member: 57173"] Hey all. Just found this place, and I'm sure I'll be here way too much:rolleyes: , but I don't have time to do the intro thing/etc right now since I'm heading to Vegas in the AM and wanted to get a question answered on staking. Dude invited me out and said he'd stake me for $1k in some cash games. Now...what's the genereal rule about the payoffs? Obviously if I lose $1k, he's out the $ and I'm out the time. In any other case, does he get his $1k back before I get a dime? So, if I cash out $3k, does he get $2k? If I cash out $1100, does he get $1050 and I ghet $50? If I cash out $200, does he get it all? Etc. Thanks! And, while I'm at it, do the same rules apply in a tournament? (I'd say no). Say he gave me the $1k to play a tounament, and I cash out $3k. Do we just split that 50/50? I realize there's all kinds of deals you can do, but I want to be fair/rquitable. JD [/QUOTE]
