Also, wrt the variance of this match, while it's true that there will be a ton of it & winning this match doesn't prove who the better player is, that doesn't make this match pointless. Both clearly seem to think they have an edge on the other, and if you have the $ and have an edge why wouldn't you take this opportunity?
Who suggested the date in the future (I honestly have no idea/not gonna read the whole thread)? That person doesn't
really want to play imo.
The person accepting the date in the future (without pushing for sooner/calling the other person out for it) also isn't super confident/eager imo.
(^^^ is all very stupid if there is some legit reason they can't play sooner/I'm just another lazy, ignorant **** posting on the internet in that case lol)
Regardless, from a distance this seems like a smart, punk rockish, young chick (who is prob very green wrt poker- tanking 10 minutes wtf!) vs a less smart "bro" (who is prob pretty seasoned/better at poker than most people think). Very interesting imo. I'm tempted to bet on Dentale if he's the dog, but I hope she wins/at least makes a good showing.
This hu match, if done/covered correctly, could actually be pretty amazing for poker imo. Billie Jean King vs whoever that was all over again. We could really use a flooding of these 2 demographics in the poker world imo.
