I may just be being a language nit, but it seems like Durrrr is referring to his match with PA like it's already over. Kinda rude IMO.

Since they've announced on Twitter the last sessions and he says he's gotta run. Seemed logicly for him to announce it if they were gonna play. Might be wrong though

I am not sure about that but I think that the playing short thing could definitely backfire huge towards the end of the 50K hands. Imagine Jungleman is up 200K-500K with ~ 5000 hands to go. He could just make a little spiel about recent cashouts/losses and therefore buy in short and splitting tables left right and center without durrrr being able to really say something about it.

No, the rake will catch up with them eventually. In the end the only one who profits is Fulltilt. The outcome of this challenge will depend on who's got the best rakeback deal.

No. I think Jungleman has an edge, but it's certainly not a massive edge like that. I don't know if either Jungleman or Durrrr could crush even a 5/10 HU reg for that winrate.
