Side action on the heads-up tourney?
 
I'm intruiged by

3 kkirk1329
4 BrianSwa

and

15 Pshabi
16 Aequitas58

Wager offers?

kkirk1329 07-29-05 03:31 PM

13 2Tone
14 ChipFish

Not a bad matchup either ;)

2Tone 07-29-05 03:38 PM

Not very confident
 
I’m a full ring game limit player. In HU NL, I consider myself a pretty serious underdog to Chip – I’d suggest getting at least 3-1 odds. BTW Kirk, if you want to put some $ on yourself against Brian, I’d take that bet, but you’d have to transfer escrow funds to a neutral party in advance.

Aequitas58 07-29-05 03:47 PM

Let's talk when the match gets closer.

Zybomb 07-29-05 03:58 PM

So did we decide to do a NCAA tournament style bracket that everyone interested fills out for $5 say?

Edit: I drew Wind in the first round, then the fungus/TP winner 2nd round.... Im not too far behind you Aeq

Talking Poker 07-29-05 04:01 PM

This is technically still up in the air... I have enough to do with this already that I won't be organizing any side action, but I would participate if someone set it up.

And, being the gambling man that I am, I will gladly take some side bets too... :D

Zybomb 07-29-05 04:04 PM

Ok I am going to start a seperate thread for those interested in doing a NCAA tournament style bracket for this.

If there is enough interest in it (its only 5 bucks come on guys lets make it a little more interesting.....I'll have myself going all the way even though I may not make it out of round 1 or 2 windbreaker then the fungus/TP winner) then we can set it up.

Ok im starting the new thread now

kkirk1329 07-29-05 09:12 PM

i dunno i dont think i got the roll to bet on that kinda stuff

Talking Poker 07-29-05 09:33 PM

Here's a fun one for you. I'll parlay Brian and Aeq for 4:1. If either loses, I'll pay you $5. If they both win though, you owe me $20.

Whaddya think?

Aequitas58 07-29-05 10:09 PM

Tone, you send me $2.50, I'll dump my match w/ Shabi.

LOL.

Talking Poker 07-29-05 10:19 PM

You say that now, but I haven't announced the prize pool yet. I think it's safe to say each entry will be worth more than $2.50 :cool:

Aequitas58 07-29-05 10:25 PM

I was jokin around, you know that.

In all seriousness... If I get out of rounds 1 and 2 (a challenge, I agree) I will have the utmost confidence in taking this tourney DOWN.

EAST SIIIIIDE!

2Tone 07-29-05 11:41 PM

Done
 
TP, you have yourself a bet.

Talking Poker 07-29-05 11:54 PM

Nice. And this bet is so much more interesting than just a normal straight up bet.

Plus, if I win, you HAVE to pay me... cause I know what you look like and will hunt you down if you don't!

:D

PShabi 07-30-05 12:37 AM

I like Kkirk in the first bout and Lou #2.

3 to 1 Lou.























But, I'll still win.

PShabi 07-30-05 12:40 AM

I would've taken this bet as well.

Talking Poker 07-30-05 01:29 AM

Want it for 5:1? $25 to me when both my boys win, $5 to you if either loses?

Let me know...

BrianSwa 07-30-05 01:42 AM

ummm
 
you know I suck heads up right? that is normally where I lose in my sit and go's. Plus head really wont be in the game this week at all!!!! One of the reasons for my money break online.

Talking Poker 07-30-05 01:43 AM

Dude! That's enough loser talk!

Do me a favor and at least lose to Gordogg, so I can break even if you're going to lose me money here :rolleyes:

BrianSwa 07-30-05 01:48 AM

oh
 

im not gonna give him the match but man I have been so freaking depressed last 2 days since I found out his operation was tuesday. Will try my best to win you some money though. Play me heads up give me some practice.

PShabi 07-30-05 11:16 AM

I didn't think it would be in my best interest to bet because I'm involved with playing Lou.

I'm down for another prop bet if anyone wants to make an offer.

Talking Poker 07-30-05 05:32 PM

But you'd be betting on yourself :confused:

PShabi 07-30-05 07:16 PM

I know, I know.

Anyway, I've got a bet.

I've got Kirk, Lou, Blibbity, and Cheval as my final 4 in my bracket.

I'll let someone take the field and I'll take those 4 to win.

Anybody want to give me 10:1 on a $5 bet?

Talking Poker 08-01-05 12:39 AM

You are picking 1/8 of the players and you want 10:1? Silly man. I can do math. I'll take the field and give you 5:1.

PShabi 08-01-05 12:43 AM

Hehe.

You were taking 5 to 1 on Lou and Brian both winning round 1. I'm picking the winner here.

I'll take 6.5 to 1 here. $5. Better hurry.

Talking Poker 08-01-05 12:55 AM

Right, you're picking one winner. I had to pick TWO!

6:1. $5/$30. Deal?

PShabi 08-01-05 01:03 AM

deal

Talking Poker 08-01-05 02:06 AM

I owe you $5. Consider us even for the bracket money...

Talking Poker 08-01-05 11:35 AM

^---Sucker bet of the year. I should have asked for 100:1.

:o

JDMcNugent7 08-01-05 01:19 PM

I'lll do that bet for 6:1. Also, I'll bet $5 on myself over JunYun in the first round if anybody wants it.

Talking Poker 08-01-05 01:36 PM

What bet are you talking about?

I'll take junYUN over you for $5.

JDMcNugent7 08-01-05 02:25 PM

i was talking about the 6:1 one with pshabi that i guess u already took, so nvm, and cool, if ur betting JunYun we can just add/subtract that from the thread contest $.

Our plan is to play tomorrow at 12:30 AM, Central Time

Talking Poker 08-02-05 02:30 AM

Finally, I win a bet!!! Thanks, junYUN :)

junYUN 08-02-05 02:33 AM

you are welcome

Talking Poker 08-02-05 12:27 PM

Yeah... I wonder what the chances of me getting paid on this bet are? We should bet on if JD will make good on this bet.

2Tone 08-02-05 12:36 PM

Doubt it
 
I’d bet you won’t, but it would seem harsh to win money from someone on the misfortune of them getting stiffed on a prior bet.

And, ah, no, we don’t have gambling problems or anything … ;)

Talking Poker 08-02-05 12:42 PM

Funny thing is.... say I bet you $25 that he won't pay me. He could then pay me the $5 which would make me lose a net $20... a far worse thing to do than to just stiff me the $5.

Gotta love it.

junYUN 08-02-05 02:12 PM

well... at least someone had faith in me. pshabi had me ousted in the first round. that hurts.

kkirk1329 08-02-05 10:46 PM

im amazed pshabi has me going to the final 4

Talking Poker 08-03-05 12:36 AM

I'm pretty sure he was drunk when he filled that out.

Actually, I'm pretty sure he's always drunk :)

kkirk1329 08-03-05 01:04 AM

lmao

Talking Poker 08-13-05 11:11 PM

Summing up....

I owe 2Tone and pshabi $5 for variations of this bet:

2Tone owed me $5 for the bracket, so we're even now.



pshabi owes me $5 for this bet (making us a wash now when combined with the above):



And JDMcNugent owes me $5 for this bet (junYUN over him):

I think that's it.

PShabi 08-14-05 12:45 PM


Ummmm, I don't think I had a piece of that first bet TP. I had you for $5 in the second bet you mention (which you won) and I had one saying that Lou/Chip/Shabi/2tone quadrant would win the whole thing.

Talking Poker 08-14-05 11:48 PM

Right you are. I was thinking you accepted that bet, but you never did..... So I guess the above should say you owe me $5.

Talking Poker 09-10-05 08:27 PM


I'm going through this now, trying to figure out who owes who what. I don't see this bet anywhere. The one you and I had was that on of your FINAL FOUR picks would win the whole thing... right? So I believe you (pshabi) owe me $5 for that bet and that's it... yes?

My bet with 2Tone washed for his bracket payment.

And JDMcNugent owes me $5 for our bet on his first round match.

I won the brackets, so that money is mine. I believe everyone paid me except for Blibbity, but he and I have a Paradise Poker deal that's been in the works for months, so assuming that eventually happens, the brackets are all square now.

Yes? No? Am I missing anything (besides the payouts to the winners, of course)?

PShabi 09-10-05 09:20 PM

No, I specifically remember making that bet. But, I'm also 99% sure it was in a different thread :confused: . Lemme look.

Talking Poker 09-10-05 09:23 PM

I remember it being talked about, but I don't remember taking the bet. I certainly may have though, but I don't remember the exact terms or stakes or anything.

Find it and I'll honor it. And the post had BETTER be from before, say, today.

Scammer.

PShabi 09-10-05 09:24 PM

Are you questioning me? My honor? You'll swim with the fucking fishes. :p

Posts #59-61.



You owe me money.

Sucker!!!!

Talking Poker 09-10-05 09:46 PM

Dammit! Ok, so I owe you $25 less the $5 you owe me = Me owing you $20.

Yes?

PShabi 09-10-05 10:11 PM

yes

btw, my screenname at Stars is BrianSwa.



























JK.
