I'm out of town right now and just don't have time, but I'll post this on PTP for you when I get home if you want more action. I'm sure you can get plenty there.

Are you willing to escrow your side of the money?

Is there any way you van not start this on 10/1, or are you just dead set on that and too impatient to wait another week or so?

JDMcNugent7 09-30-08 03:26 AM

i can wait another week i guess. and ok cool post on PTP for me or whatever, but only if u get to escrow the $.

and ya i can escrow my side to u as well.

Talking Poker 10-02-08 03:44 PM

OK, I just posted this for you:


Let's see how much interest there is.

I'm fine with escrowing everything from both sides.

And personally, even though it's longer, I think the 12 month bet at 2:1 is better than the 6 month one for even money. I'm still undecided on that though.

jillaj 10-09-08 11:47 AM

So how did this end up?

Talking Poker 10-09-08 01:24 PM

BTW, there wasn't nearly as much interest in this as I expected... people think it's a good bet, but the escrowing is a problem, and it makes sense. Why place a potentially 1 year bet (unless you quit early) for a 50% return, when you should be able to do much better than that with the same money by actively staking with it? That's the main argument.

Wow.

This would have been awesome to rail. Sorry I missed it.

When you won this pot, did you thank the table for making you $xxxx? How much was this bet for, anyway?

Amazing that it came down to the wire like that.

Wes 10-10-08 01:49 AM
