Prop betting at B&M

[Talking Poker]

Cool story, cool thread.

Other than the betting part of it, how was the round? Was the guy cool, or was it like spending 4 hours golfing with an online poker enemy? I can't think that would be too much fun.

I don't have much hustling advice, but I don't see any problem at all with getting some over-confident guy onto a golf course and letting him give you his money. What you need to do though, IMO, is forget this small time stuff and go for the big hits. Try to find someone willing to play $100 a hole. Or $500 a hole. Be careful choosing your mark, of course.... but if you are a scratch golfer, you should be fine.

Now... on to something much more important. I have a "prop" for you. You say you are a scratch golfer. I promise you that I am not - not even close. In fact, I don't think I have played a round in more than a year now (it's cloe though - I played last summer). So, given all that, I'm willing to make you a friendly wager. Give me 50 strokes (yes, 50), and I'll take you on using only a putter. I know, I know... 50 strokes sounds like a lot. That's about 3 per hole. Did I mention I will only be using a putter?

Whadday say?
