[Talking Poker]

Question: If you are taking poker so seriously, and are playing so well, and "have zero reason to think this one would end down," why are you taknig backers? Why not back yourself and keep all of the profits?

Don't get me wrong, I'm all in favor of playing backed - but mostly for short term "taking a shot" type things. If you can afford it and if you don't think there is any chance you will lose, why take backing?
