ya i mean this wasnt supposed to be posted yet but w/e. Anyway... there are obv a few conditions, im out of it- but off the top of my head:

1) 200-400min (nl/plo obv)
2) can change tables anytime eff stacks are >250bb
3) have to reload when stacks are <75bb
4) $$ won in the challenge is kept obv (if i win 750k in poker, i get that PLUS your 500k- if i lose 750k in poker you get 2.25m total).
5) same stakes the whole time
6) not open to phil galfond

hmm probly some other stuff but im out of it b/c i jus got owned @ some scrabble. I was gonna think up official 'terms' and post em or something, but thought i had another week or two b4 it became public.

If Hellmuth accepts this it will take about a year because he will need like 12 wires a day to keep playing.

What about Iveeeyyyyy?

the list will be long...Brunson, Greenstein, Benyamine, Ivey, Antonious, and a few of the very notable HS online players like the Dang brothers, Zigmund, OMG GAY AIKEN etc....

this is an interesting challenge...but realistically, how long will 50K hands last?...

“I’m making this heads-up challenge to the world. Anyone can accept. Four tables, minimum of $200/$400, and I’ll put up $1.5 million to their $500,000. We play 50,000 hands minimum and if they end up a dollar after rake they keep the side money or whatever. So basically, if you and I played and you won a dollar, you would get my $1.5 million and if I won a dollar I would win your $500,000.

“So I’m giving a million dollars free if anyone thinks they can do it.”

[ ] giving away a million dollars
[x] laying 3-1 odds

this will be an EPIC thread, especially when the challengers step-up and show themselves
