So ive got a couple of people that are betting against me for this challenge for about 150 dollars total.

Site : pokerstars
stakes :.25/.50
number hours/tables :unlimited for 10 days
rakeback included? :yes
goal profit : 3000 usd

For rakeback the tournament money made from fpp will count as part of the total profit. Im platinum my username is not the same as my 2+2 so dont bother looking for my stats. Every 5000 vpp earned 50 dollars will be added to the profit (which is a way to simplify "what im supposed to earn" from the stellar reward. because when i start playing the "green" line will be in the middle so we figured thats the best way for doing it.)

This challenge will start sometime next month. planning on playing around 13-14 hours per day, 4-5 tables.

Who is +ev? me or the people betting against me?

Depends on your winrate so without that info then its hard to say who is +ev. And why not add more than 5 tables rather than kill yourself for 14 hours a day at 4-5 tables?

Plus why kill yourself for a sidebet of just 3 buy ins at your stake. It isn't a significant amount of money compared to the goal you want to achieve.

I don't have your stats, you are platinum so u play a decent amount and prob have a decent idea of how your chances are. I would say 99% of players would fail to make the 3k. If you are in the top 1% it might be ok EV, if u r not in the top 1% you should get like 10-1 odds as it's very unlikely.

To all of you asking why im doing it here is why. I used to be an stt grinder and recently i have switched to short handed cashgame. i only have about 20k hands on nl50 with 4.5PTBB per 100. I'm doing this to get a lot hands in this short period of time. so that i can later decide wether to move up to nl 100. The 150 dollar bet is only to give me motivation to to make as much money possible in those 10 days. Even if it was 3 buyins it becomes a matter of pride winning the bet.
