Strange prop bet between Matt Savage and MIke Noori - Page 14 - Poker News

If you're gonna go eating 150 apples (or try to), you're probably gonna want to be taking in some sodium with that, i'd think you're blood would get too watery...apples are mostly water after all.

also healthy potassium:sodium ratio is about 3:1. most american have the opposite 1:3. apples are pretty much all potassium and no sodium, you could eat tons of apples and be fine (if they dont give you gas which they do for me)

The sheer level of sodium intake would kill him. What about fruit and yogurt parfaits though? I think I could crush a couple hundred worth with enough weed.

I think that he's gonna be getting plenty of sodium with all the other crap that he is going to have to eat.

I suspect he knows he's going to lose and this is just a way to get attention to the charitable part of the exercise. It's pretty smart, since they appear to have raised about $25,000 for that village.

Read the entire ****ing thread and can't believe no one asked this question - is it $1000 in menu cost or a $1000 tab? I know the rules say no airports, and apparently they're doing it in Arizona, but IIRC sales tax at the McDonald's on Chicago Ave in downtown Chicago near the Mile was like 11% sales tax. THAT would have to be the move, right? That's a huge cut in the amount of food you have to eat.

It would be great if his expected menu plan is released online (X burgers, X apple slices, X nuggets...) right as he starts eating so that the figures can be analyzed to see if he is certain to die before he gets too far into things.

Also it appears he isn't going to attempt any kind of angle so this bet is already done.

Really?? I think it's more than enough to fill up an average person. I struggled with the 3rd burger but I don't like wasting food so I forced it down.

What about ordering the food home? Do they charge extra for this?
Would it count towards the 1000$?

So the bet starts in 3 hours and I'm going to bed in 5 hours. Line set for him to have given up within that 2 hour timespan after he downs $25 worth and is fuller than he has ever been?

I'm guessing $50 of bags before he quits then, which should be about equal to like 10 regular full apples

Listen bro. I'm not rich checkmaker but I am a decent sized guy. I could have sex with you anytime. Wait, what I'm trying to say is he will easily clear $100-200 and then it's all ova baby.
