Re: PLO200 prop bet - 150 BI's in 31 days

Escrows: “Brian Hastings” on FTP and “wazzbot” on Pokerstars
Judges: mig, krmont22 and gordo16

I will take action up to $45 000 to my $15 000 (3-1)
Minimum wager: $600 to my $200

Final set of rules:

1. I must have a web-cam on while I play. I will not be disqualified for accidental or technical problems with the web-cam. If I have problems and it continues, it will be up to the judges to decide whether I should be disqualified or not. The link for this will be http://www.justin.tv/donkpredator#r=GUhAkKo

2. I am allowed to leave the web-cam to use the bathroom or to grab some food from the kitchen.

3. $30,000 must be won, after paying rake, and not counting rakeback or bonuses or pokerstars frequent player points or money from anything other than the poker games. If $30,000 or more is won, and all other conditions are met, I will win the bet. If $29,999 or less is won, or any other condition is not met by me, I will lose the bet. I may end the bet at any time if I claim to have won the $30,000 prior to the end of the 31 day period. This does not stop the clock from ticking. The 31 day period continues to count down, so I may continue to play if I wish in case the claim is not accepted. Regardless, hitting $30,000 of profits at any point during the 31 day period, if verified, results in me winning the bet, even if I subsequently lose money back.

4. Those who bet will be given my cell phone number. During these calls, you will request that I type a specific number (1-9) into the chat. Once you do this, I will be given one minute to type the given number into at least four chat boxes on my table. For every 750 dollars you bet, you will be allowed one phone call (max of 3). If I miss the call either I’ll give you a call back immediately or just give me another call. Once this is done, you are required to post in my progress thread to confirm that I passed the test.

5. The only situation in which I will be allowed to void this bet midway through is a death in my family (sister, brother, mom or dad). Documentation would have to be provided.

6. Those who wager are strictly prohibited from sitting at my tables unless you are a regular or a semi regular at 1/2 PLO six max. So if you normally play 5/10 six max, you will not be allowed to play 1/2 six max. You also are not allowed to collude/purposely slow down tables. If the judges feel they have enough substantiated proof of a violation of this rule, this will result in a forfeiter of the violating individual's wager.

7. Following the bet, Scottyy will post in the thread with my results. If people don't accept his results, then the hand histories will be sent to the three judges and they will determine who won the bet.

8. I must buy in full with the auto rebuy on. If it happens a couple times, this isn't grounds for the bet to be void but if it continues, then it is. It will be judges discretion.

9. As part of the motivation for the wagerers may be entertainment, I will provide dailyish updates in the progress thread. Good faith effort to update at least every 24 hours is expected, but this condition will not be considered breached until I play one hand when 72 hours or more have gone by without update.

10: I can not play less than 14 tables at the same time (except when I’m starting my session by being on waiting lists and waiting to get a seat. And when I have to change tables, due to players leaving)



Brian and wazz will confirm your bets in this thread consecutive

Any other questions regarding the bet, just PM me or ask in this thread

Re: PLO200 prop bet - 150 BI's in 31 days

rule 10 is the worst rule ever imo...

something like "My table ratio at the end of the bet must be atleast 12 " would be alot better and alot clearer

Yea, rule 10 is unacceptable in current form. Terms are ambiguous and there is no penalty for breaking it.

Please reserve me 3k assuming the rule is cleared up.

Okey, I can make this rule 10:
"My table ratio at the end of the bet must be atleast 12". But where can I find my table ratio?

i know ptr3 tells you in the sessions table ..... not sure about HEM but im guessing it does

they way you had the rule doesnt really fit and i think 12 is a good number as it accounts for the time it takes to open/close tables etc.

Re: PLO200 prop bet - 150 BI's in 31 days

I'm not betting, but rule 10 is incredibly stupid. OP has to put in so much volume and keep a decent winrate that if he drops below 12 tables he'll probably be hurting himself. Just get rid of it imo

All he has to do is play more hours and less tables increasing his winrate. I strongly think that it makes a big diffence having this rule. It will demand more from him to hit the 30k.

Re: PLO200 prop bet - 150 BI's in 31 days

I have decided to remove the rule. It wont make any big different. I wont be playing less than 14 tables anyways.
If you dont wanna bet vs be because of that, your loss.

Update rules on your original post. Also correct the odds you are asking (3-1 instead of 4-1)

I really hope you sacrificed a lamb to the PLO gods.
