Default Question on BAP, and terminology


I know you can't trade PayPal money for money on a site, but can you purchase a share in a BAP with PayPal, or is that up to the person running it?

Just wanted to make sure I got these terms right:

ROI - percentage return on investment (is anything positive good? or is it anything over 100% is good)

Cake - if you get staked and lose you have to pay it back on a future stake.

heeb - sitting at a ring game?


thanks

terminology is correct....

paypal would be up to individual ..as I believe paypal is very risky as it can be reversed too easily.... so you'd have to agree with the individual ahead of time if they would accept that or not

You can invest whichever way the player allows, but yes, Paypal is way too risky. They consider money used for gambling related events against their terms which nullifies those transactions.

As for Cake, here's a Sticky that explains it well: http://forum.neverbeg.com/showthread.php?t=104032

Heeb has evolved into a stake consisting of multiple games without all of the buy-in's provided. i.e. If I stake $65 to play 10 $6.50's, it's a series. If I staked $30 to do it, it'd be a heeb because completion depends on rolling over profit.
