There are valid arguments for both sides and I am very sure that if the roles were opposite and jungleman backers had durrrr they would also present some issue in regards to the bets.
Alaei and Viffer keep throwing out this "3 years". Let's be clear, it's been 3 years since
DWAN decided to put forth a serious effort in this challenge. FTP, on the other hand, was down for 1 year 3 months. A majority of the time that this thing has been played has been a result of Dwan choosing not to play,
INCLUDING BEFORE BLACK FRIDAY. The idea that because he does this all bets are off is ****ing insane to me.

+1 this exactly. I mean, what a freeroll. The guy loses a bunch to start off with and decides to stop playing and everyone who bet on him thinks they're free and clear now. Wow, great deal.
I'm sure if after the first few months Jungle was down 30 buyins and he decided to go live in the mountains for 3 years to cope with his loss while Dwan concurrently played HU NLHE non stop you'd guys be making the same argument too right? All bets are off, Jungle likes nature hikes and Dwan has to deal with this and oh yeah Full Tilt went down so this changes everything.
