why are people setting lines before they know the format? 5K hands vs. 50K hands is very different, 2-tabling vs. 6-tabling is very different, the stakes matter, etc.

I will give $5 to whoever you are not referring to, so we can get both sides.

Since they're both experienced high-stakes online pros, the number of tables and the stakes they play should not make any difference on the line. The number of hands will have a small difference. The less hands they play the closer to even the line will be. Between these two guys, -130 is probably too high of a line on either side. Also people set lines for things well in advance of knowing full information. There's already a line out on the Super Bowl, and the NFL regular season hasn't even started yet.

Depending on details, I may take Doug at +130. If you want to bet, PM me to work out details (amount, escrow, etc.). Though we should probably first see what details Sauce and Doug work out.

Both can 2-6 table, however depending on the exact challenge (for example if they always have to play 4+ tables and at least 2 hours at a time or something of this nature) it could greatly favor one player or another.

Especially because there aren't very frequently 6 tabling HU matches at HSNL anymore (unfortunately

)

Bit too close for me to bet on.. I think WCG has been playing a lot more NL than Sauce has recently.

Too bad WCGRider will face an unknown style to him when the challenge starts. Sauce has proven again and again that with time to prepare he can come up with challenging problems for even the best players (remember Kanu7 sitting out to him after not being able to figuring out Sauce's limp-strategie on the fly?).

Therefore, the exact conditions of the match (table#, sessionlength, total hands) will have a great impact on Sauce's chances. The longer the sessions, the fewer the total hands (and probably the fewer the tables), the more likely Sauce will win and vice versa.

I would imagine Sauce would have an edge in this.

Plus I don't like the WCG guy. Don't like what he said about Willhasha. Words that are now biting WCG in the ass as Denoking (willhasha) is up a few mega since it was proclaimed that he is "just not good." Should never say these things, they have a habit of coming back to haunt
