son of a bitch, saw this thread and really thought I had 10k coming my way that totally forgot about.

being results oriented, it seems really dumb to have bet against a guy making all his own rules and restrictions. I mean we're basically betting that he thinks he can play way more than he actually can. How should we know?

Actually, the people betting against him made 90% of the rules, and I still think this was an incredibly tough bet for him. It came down to the wire, and he admitted to considering quitting at least a couple of times. Clearly it wasn't a sure thing for us, but I still think it was a good bet.

I thought he wouldn't play that many cash game hands given he could only play three days of the week at them. Then he plays 2 million hands, which I couldn't do even in my most insane driven points of career. Got to congratulate him in the end.

He lost around $90k playing $200 NL, won around $60-65k from this prop bet, and had another $130k (can't remember - might have been more) or so in bonuses along the way for making SNE.
