Prop bets anyone?
 
Anyone got any ideas? Probably poker ones

Invigilator 09-02-08 10:09 PM

At a final table (i.e. the league)

the number of pair vs pair all ins preflop.

Invigilator 09-02-08 10:10 PM

longer running one.

First person (from a start date and time) to document wins with all 13 pocket pairs.

Wes 09-02-08 10:15 PM

over/under how many accounts jjdiana86 has closed due to being a degenerate.

I'll set it at 2.5.

Invigilator 09-02-08 10:18 PM

What odds would you give that I can make a profit playing 70+% VPIP at micro stakes for 5,000 hands?? With a minimum of 5 players on the table

Talking Poker 09-03-08 01:28 AM

Now this one sound fun. But TBH, I think that would be pretty easy to do, so I can't give you action. Just see every flop and jam when you hit.

Make it 100% VPIP, and I'll give you action. Yes, you must see every single flop, even if there art shoves in front of you.

(Now we compromise and set a line for 90%)

Wes 09-03-08 01:32 AM

if you have to raise at least 55% of hands I'd give you 2:1 if you are playing nlhe.

JDMcNugent7 09-03-08 03:40 AM

I am in no condition to think right now but I really want to do this. And we should bet some real $ on this, around 1k. We need to figure out something to do tho. Like best winrate after 25k hands of 1/2 HU or something.

sjay2k 09-04-08 12:39 AM


hmmm how much would you be willing to put up for this? anyone else?

i bet my friend i could balance a spoon on my nose last night, i lost.

Wes 09-04-08 11:46 AM

I'd bet like 2-3k (i win 1-1.5k).

Invigilator 09-04-08 04:45 PM

We need prop bets that involve getting a tattoo

Talking Poker 09-04-08 04:54 PM

that says "I :h: X-Longshot-X" or possible "BrianSWA FTW!"

The latter would look awesomer on a forehead.

cds0699 09-04-08 04:58 PM

LOL how much?

Spidey44 09-04-08 06:05 PM

I'm always up for doing something stupid for money... No permanent ink on me though...

sjay2k 09-05-08 05:36 AM

ok i'd like to get a little more action (probably 2.5 to win 5), if i can get that remainder matched with someone else i'm in. i'll ask my degen friends on msn later

plmk any terms you need, though i intend to complete the bet in good faith.

sjay2k 09-07-08 03:47 AM

Anyone be up for some arcade challenges? Thinking we create a new account each and see who has the most arcade points after 24 hrs wins

Invigilator 09-07-08 09:40 AM

If someone wants to pu money on a swingball tournament, I'm in. ;)

sjay2k 09-12-08 12:35 AM

starting this one now

Talking Poker 09-12-08 12:57 AM

Did you guys settle on exact terms? What's the best for?

Please post PT stats once in a while... and GL!

sjay2k 09-12-08 01:24 AM

We agreed on 70/50 preflop stats,only hands with 5 players count, betting 1500 @ 2:1

Must make a profit over 5k hands

Dear god it's so tilting, it reminds me of when i used to tutor kids who had no real interest in learning.

After my first mini-session, I think getting up to 70 pfr will be the hardest part.

I wonder if this will affect your game when you are done. That could be an unexpected cost.

Also, you only need a 50% PFR, right? Not 70%? You said above you thought getting the 70% PFR would be the toughest... didn't know if you meant the 50% PFR or the 70% VPIP. I assume the former.

For Hand #2, that actually counts against your PFR number, because you only smooth called, right?

Down $40 after 1,049 hands, playing 73/55
