Feb. Prop bets
 
$100 per category:

- Total $ won
- Overall winrate
- Hands played (cash games hands only im thinking, right?)
- Biggest tourny win
- 4 person HU sng on stars for $100 each (no previous $100 needed for this)

so we could ship $400 to TalkingPoker on stars and winner of each category gets $300.

have the $ sent to TP by the 1st and you're in and say if ur playing in this thread. i guess so far it will be me, mayhem, sjay, and tp.

if u guys want to change anything or have other ideas feel free im just tryin to get it started since we have 2 days.

also - should we make a rule u have to update at every1 on like the 15th of febuary with ur #'s or anything like that?

MAYHEM45 01-30-07 04:14 PM

Im in for everything. Updates every 10 days would be cool.

JDMcNugent7 01-30-07 05:11 PM

boobie u degenerate are u in?

Boobie Lover 01-30-07 06:25 PM

I'll do all but the tourney one.

Zybomb 01-30-07 06:36 PM

you would have won that one last month...

Boobie Lover 01-30-07 06:38 PM

So when you say biggest tourney win, are we talking about biggest tourney cash? I thought it meant biggest tournament victory.

JDMcNugent7 01-30-07 06:46 PM

i was thinking whoever wins the most cash from a single tourny.
i dont think we should be able to just pick which ones we want in - if there was one i didnt want tho it would def be this one too - i prob will only play the sundays if any.

also - should we count tourny and sng wins as the most $ won for the month? i kinda say no, b/c i dont think we can verify sng's.

Zybomb 01-30-07 06:54 PM

If you wanted to verify SNGs you could just have everyone post their sharkscope #'s at the beginning of the month and then check the #'s at the end of the month and determine how much profit or loss was made

sjay2k 01-30-07 07:20 PM

I don't play donkaments either

JDMcNugent7 01-30-07 07:28 PM

fine with me. i dont use sharkscope, but i hear its not 100% accurate. im not the best person to know tho.

JDMcNugent7 01-30-07 07:30 PM

ok lets take that 1 out since 3 ppl dont want it - i was talkin to mayhem and he had the idea. maybe we could make it best finish in the stars sunday mill only? - so every1 could just play a few tournies and be totally fine.

all others cool with u and wut u think of doin just sunday mills? or do u not play those either?

sjay2k 01-30-07 07:34 PM

sunday tourneys are on at like 2am monday morning for me, so i can't do them.

MAYHEM45 01-30-07 07:42 PM

Thats the only way i make money dammit.

JDMcNugent7 01-30-07 08:01 PM

k well i'll still do them all so ill do that one with u and whoever else wants.
u cool with just doin it for the sunday ones tho?

Talking Poker 01-30-07 08:15 PM

I'm not sure if I should do this or not. It's way -EV for me, since I play less than the rest of you guys.

I'm not definitely out though... just saying I'm not definitely in yet.

JDMcNugent7 01-30-07 09:22 PM

can we send the $ to u?

Talking Poker 01-30-07 11:50 PM

Absolutely. TalkingPoker on Stars.

sjay2k 01-31-07 12:00 AM

OK i'm in. $300 (correct?) shipped.

JDMcNugent7 01-31-07 01:26 AM

im in too.
$400 sent - me mayhem and boobie are gonna do best pokerstars sunday mill finish in terms of $.

Talking Poker 01-31-07 02:49 AM

Money received so far:

sjay2k 01-31-07 03:00 AM

TP are u down?

Boobie Lover 01-31-07 03:10 AM

Any way I can ship you money on Full Tilt instead of Stars? I'd rather keep what I have in Stars if that is at all possible.

Talking Poker 01-31-07 03:11 AM

Well, let's take a look:

- Total $ won
I won't win this. I don't play enough.
- Overall winrate
I'd have a shot at this.
- Hands played (cash games hands only im thinking, right?)
I definitely can't win this.
- Biggest tourny win
I've played like 2 tourneys online in the past 4 months.... so.... not gonna happen. I hardly play poker on the weekends any more.
- 4 person HU sng on stars for $100 each (no previous $100 needed for this)
I'll play in this for sure.

So... in summary, I'm definitely in for the last one, but it would be stupid for me to do the others. I'll do the win rate one if you guys want. We can come up with a minimum number of hands for me if you want. I'm not going to play 200 hand and then quit on you or anything, but I can easily do 5 or 10k hands...

I just don't see how I could have a shot at the other 3 categories based on the number of hands we all play. I'd be donating.

If I do happen to play in a Sunday tourney, I'd be happy to make a prop bet on that one tourney with you guys though...

Talking Poker 01-31-07 03:12 AM

Meh. I'm in the same boat, since most of my money in on Tilt already. Maybe JD or sjay will trade you some Stars money for some Tilt money...

sjay2k 01-31-07 03:30 AM

aww weaksauce TP. this could inspire you to play more.

melioris 01-31-07 08:58 AM

he has got a lady in his life and is finding inspiration elsewhere.

Talking Poker 01-31-07 12:23 PM

After last night, I'm feeling pretty inspired to take the month off.

I'm not going to, but just saying.

Reel Deal 01-31-07 12:26 PM

Might I suggest a self-imposed ban/bounty for the month... which, of course, you may lift whenever the hell you feel like it.

Talking Poker 01-31-07 12:38 PM

Done: $1000 paid to your Neteller account (*snicker*) if anyone sees my playing anywhere online in the next 5 minutes.

Talking Poker 01-31-07 12:38 PM

OK, I can't take it any more. I'm lifting the bounty. You had your chance to collect.

Reel Deal 01-31-07 12:42 PM

Fuck. I was so counting on that money. Damn it.

well i just missed everything HU.
good start.
this prop bet was prob a bad idea for me unless i can find some time to freakin play without 1000 distractions.

actually finished -4k dont feel like changing it.

sjay2k 02-02-07 09:30 AM

mine's pretty similar so far lozl

MAYHEM45 02-02-07 04:58 PM

We have a problem, My PT isnt importing all my FT hands. It missed about 50 from todays session. There is nothing on the PT forums about this and I have no idea whats wrong.

JDMcNugent7 02-02-07 05:05 PM

tryin to cheat already.

MAYHEM45 02-02-07 05:23 PM

OBV

I think I fixed it, i had to find the file and delete one of the hands that had a split pot at the end though, so my total hands played is still one off, not a big deal, but still annoying. Im gonna email PT pat the hand in question and see if he can help.

MAYHEM45 02-02-07 06:34 PM

Pat fuckin rocks.

Talking Poker 02-02-07 08:57 PM

What did he do?

I had to download patches for both PT and PAHud the other day, after FT's latest update. I'm rolling now, other than annoying missing hands from when I get disconnected. I've emailed FT's support and requested them, but I think that may be more trouble than it's worth.

MAYHEM45 02-02-07 09:05 PM

The newest patch he made right after I emailed him included an update to fix split pot hands on FT. Oh yeah, and if you get disconnected on FT you can kiss those HHs goodbye, I'm still waiting on a bunch from 2 months ago, apparently their "tool" for retrieving them is broken. Great excuse.

Talking Poker 02-02-07 11:16 PM

Maybe they shouldn't freaking disconnect me then. It's annoying. It was my cable company's fault this last time, but I hate how I had to learn the hard way that if you play with the Cashier window open, far too often when you "Accept" a waiting list invitation, the software freezes up. What's up with that???

might as well count me out.
i sware i run worse than anyone when taking shots. i was in this game cuz elky is soooo overly aggro against me its ridiculous. i have played him alot in the past and i dont think he plays 25/50 often so i got a seat with position on him and get it all in in the biggest pot of my life as a 83% favorite, to lose.

i have run worse than i ever have the last 2 days.

Boobie Lover 02-02-07 11:32 PM

Pretty sure Elky will be playing at 25/50 for a while now that he got 2nd in a EPT thing a couple weeks ago.

P.s. - Take your shots when Skywalker is playing, not hyper aggro ElkY.

JDMcNugent7 02-02-07 11:35 PM

figures thats the only reason hes playing. im so pissed still. if i ever somehow get 50k on stars i sware im playing 25/50... its like once u get to a certain level ppl actually play worse.
