Just booked a Supernova Elite prop bet with my roomate BallCup (Stalrock on 2p2) and wanted to make a thread for it to be official.

I am currently at 340k VPPs and have to get SNE by the end of the year playing Pot Limit Omaha. 50% of my play needs to come at PLO100 and below which means I will end up playing 12-16 hours a day 24 tabling and anywhere from 400-600k hands/month aka no life for the rest of 2011.


I got 3-1 odds on this, my $15,000 to his $45,000. Also if successful I stand to make about $90,000 from the Pokerstars VIP Milestones/Bonuses and hitting SNE.



Some people are going to ask me why in the **** I would want to do this. Well I like a good endurance/volume challenge and this sure is a helluva one. Also the guaranteed money from SNE and the prop bet is way more then I would make game selecting/playing less tables the next few months so it makes sense to give this a shot.


Only stipulation is if I get kicked out of Canada for whatever reason then the bet is off. If i lose more then $90,000 playing at the tables I have to quit poker and move back home and get a real job. No webcam as we live together so he will be able to see its me playing


Will be posting more updates on my blog with vids and other random stuff



Should be fun times

Good luck Joey!

Good luck!!! Are you playing SS or 100BB?

That video is hilarious btw

no chance

I'd like to bet that you'll do it

New bet, new video imo


Posted this on my blog but might as well post it ITT too


My basic plan for now is to 24 table PLO50 since some of my hands need to be played there. The last few days I have been playing and seem to go on massive tilt at some point during the session and haven't had winning sessions. To be able to have a clear head and think about all decisions for hours and hours a day while 24 tabling doesn't seem like it will be possible for me to do without losing a ton of money so I have been trying to think of ways to minimize my losses while playing. I've been buying in for 30bbs and playing a super tight game right now and running up stacks and leaving when table is all regs/nitty. Has seemed to work well for minimizing swings so far and will probably stick with it for now. My vpp rate has been lower doing this since I am not playing many hands so I have been trying to overlimp in position in some spots with hands that I would normally fold in hopes to help with VPP and win money at the tables. I'm still trying to figure out a good 3bet range IP and OOP, I think I have been showing a profit 3betting all AAxx hands IP and OOP so far and shoving most of flops in heads up or BB vs SB/BTN situations but when its 3 callers and I am on BTN or BB with weak aces those have been bad spots to 3bet and have not been showing a profit. Also defending lower rundowns OOP or even IP have not been doing well so far for me with stack size and implied odds and FE lower so I am thinking it may be optimal to stick to high card hands as far as flatting pre-flop raises goes and let go of the 3456 and 5689 type of hands.

400k-600k hands a month! Good luck!

I miss online poker

Wow I remember you were playing at the same table as me a couple of days ago. Had no idea you were a SNE, tbh thought you were just a fish shortstacking PLO 50 hoping for a good run. How wrong was I, you're on another level. Good luck.

no life for life! Good luck anywayz

sick...

ez money... if you don't go busto in the process u can already start to plan how to spent teh moniez...

Are you on coke on the video ?

hahahahahahahahaha

confirmed sicko. GLGL!!!

Joe how comes u didn't lose SNE status at the end of Sept?

I thought everyone who does not hav 1M Vpps by 30th Sept goes back to SN

Also did u not miss a bit of grindin when BF happened? How were u able to maintain the 50k VPPs needed per month or did Stars make an allowance for BF for those who relocated?

This pic shouldn't be possible???

How can you already have SNE and have it valid until Feb 2012 without having 1M VPP this year???

Am I missing something here?

And how can you grind 24 tables and post on this forum at the same time?

I am happy to take the other side, same odds, $1000.

gl joey, you got this

exactly same thoughts lol.

glgl, you seem to have the (natural then? ) power

The stipulation about being kicked out of Canada... how long have you been there so far so the bettors can figure out if there's a real chance of that happening.

He is still SNe since he moved to canada recently i guess??

Good luck Joey, remember one post of you a few weeks ago when you advice people to not play plo because it is devil and now this lol!

gl, crush it and don't kill anyone so you can stay in canada - playing poker -
