    This is just scummy imo. Sure you let them know so then they are idiots for letting you build your roll off of their money. Not that you care but I've lost alot of respect for you.
    How is it scummy if I write a clause in a cash stake and all backers agree to it and know I could quit at anytime? If someone doesn't like that they are not obligated to buy my action. I am not forcing anything on anyone.

    And if I am quitting they probably made a good chunk of change which has been the case 2 times.

    The first time I quit early I immediately went on a 20k downswing right after we all spit up our profits which sucked for me but backers got paid during my "running over expectation period". Second time there were 2 weeks left and it was christmas/new years and I wanted to book a solid win for all of us and took a break for the holidays. Every guy that invested was very happy that they made a lot of money and none were pissed I ended it and my biggest backer had very kind words

    Couldnt ask for a better stake holder. Super professional, always available, frequent daily updates and subsequent blogs.

    Really cares about about keeping his investors in the loop at all times.

    More trustworthy as anyone I've come across in poker. Would have no problem investing large sums again and again.

    Oh, and a pretty good limit player to boot

    Thanks again for letting me invest.
