hi, I’m new to cardschat and I have a doubt about my banker. I’m a 2/5 player and I have a banker but the deal seems quite off to me so I want your Opinions.
The deal consists in 50-50% deal with makeup, only for cash game. The thing is that he is telling me that I have to first win $5,000 so we can split winnings starting from there every week. What this really means is that he puts the money in and I first have to make a $5,000 bankroll. I’ve done it so if I have this $5,000 bankroll, if I win $2,000 in a week, we would split $1,000 for me and $1,000 for him, but I still have to maintain that bankroll intact, he argues that if the deal ever ends we would split that bankroll for halves. The problem is that if I end up loosing $1,000 in a week, now I have a $4,000 bankroll so in order to split any winnings I have to first get that 1k back so I can have the 5k and then we can start making profit again. This feels as if I have always a $5,000 plus makeup, besides the makeup if I end up loosing that bankroll. He argues that this is like an insurance, but i think it’s pretty unfair for a 50/50 deal, I hope I explained myself and hope you guys can help me
