This seems right. Tbh I dont care about turbo or regspeed. The buyin for the HU match is to be decided between opponents ? Whats the BI for the bracket ?

Well unless I'm terribly mistaken, we can't get money onto Pokerstars.net without work-arounds like VPNs or whatever people use, so it's the "buyin for the game" part I was wondering about. But if there's a way to set up private heads up matches for play money then that would work.

This is an absolutely ridiculous thing to say. I was never even entertaining the idea of playing for $ in each game, just a sidebet if I got LOL good odds. I stated numerous times that I did NOT even want to play. Him bending over and saying pipe me with a 2:1 offer was the only reason I accepted. I never once agreed to anything then backed out, or attempted to angle.

You're a piece of ****.

El D, congrats on getting maximum rustlage from tFeear. You might want to back off a little though or his disproportionately large midget head might explode
05-06-2015 , 01:26 PM
Dude you mentioned you needed to play for money outside of the EV te game offers.

You then, in an attempt to back track, said a top 10 quote itt about how play chips have value.

This is a bad look. Nobody actually believes the **** you are spewing.

You're a piece of ****.

Ok so you're not just an angle shooter, but a liar too.

The whole discussion was about playing SNGs and having a sidebet.

You know what a sidebet implies, right? Of course. A main bet.

As Custer has pointed out, you even stated that you needed extra ev with a side bet.

The whole time rep is talking about $100 (or more) SNGs and not a single peep from you about not playing for money.

You negotiate down to best of 7 and 2:1 sidebet with everyone obviously under the impression you're playing the SNGs for money.

Then, only after rep has accepted all those terms, you drop the play money angle.

That's like the very definition of an angle.

As Custer also points out, to try and weasel your way around what you wrote previously you drop "play money chips have value." Lololol.

You're a scummy angle shooter, plain and simple. And a liar.

Congrats, you've managed to make Babs look like an honorable gambler by comparison.

Angle shooting in this instance would be trying to change things after a deal had been reached and terms agreed to. This never happened. Try harder, you're not currently trying hard enough lol.

No bet was ever booked. Put forth a better effort Diablo.

Grear,

You don't even believe what you're writing.

But now we all know what your integrity is worth to you, about $125.

Didn't that actually happen tho?

I thought you two had it nailed down (your 250 against his 500) and were gonna play at a set date (Monday sometime, I think it was)?
05-06-2015 , 01:48 PM
So the side bet was 2:1 on x$ for the series and the main bet was play chips? You don't even believe this, right?
05-06-2015 , 01:52 PM
At no point in my thinking was I ever playing him for $100 a game. He proposed $100 for 25 games and my response was "no thanks" It's as simple as that.

Now as far as me understanding what a side bet means, I looked at it like this. We play a best of 7 series, that's what we are "betting" on, and the money that we have both escrowed on the side are what the payouts are.

Pretty gross that someone with almost a decade of flawless history with money is being calling an angle shooting liar. It's not like I sought him out and tried to weasel him along the way. He asked me repeatedly to play him, even after hearing me say no.

In the end this is OOT, and 95% of posters itt have no idea about anything related to poker, hence the making fun of a 300 game sample of turbo SNGs, (that actually equate to like a $40 + hourly when 25 tabling after RB) if you're just looking at that sample, which again is like looking at a baseball team that starts off 1-0 and drawing a conclusion.

u mean like trying to slip in the word "turbo" after i've already gifted you 2 to 1?

but yea, such a +ev spot for you that you couldn't even lift a finger to send a single PM or even acknowledge that it was about to go down. you were praying that nobody would bring it up again because despite your tiny short stature, you're a huge bitch.

updated interest list:

+rep
el o el
99
GMLAW
drawnone
larry
brow
bluff
saklad
jmakin (?)
tgreear (?)
yak
mullen
howard
lkj
gambit

am i missing anyone? also i think it'd be super cool if some players wanted to play a variant other than nlh. maybe set nlh as a default and if two players agree to play a diff game, do that for the match instead? i'd actually look forward to playing my matches in something other than nlh, but i'm cool either way.

i'll bear the brunt of the organizing work if need be, i guess it just boils down to what kind of stakes people want to play for and what kind of customizations we can make to the format. i've never even looked at pokerstars home games so idk how that goes.

Why the **** would I not think the games are turbo? If I had said super turbo or hyper turbo, you'd have a point. For every 1 regular speed HU that goes off, there's probably 20 turbo HUs that go off, and 50+ super/hypers that go off, if not more.

So yeah, how on earth could I have possibly slipped in the word turbo, what was I possibly thinking?

And I told you a few days ago when we could start, then I offered a start time today. Which is a lot more effort than you've put into making this happen, especially from the challenger. Like I said, I don't give a **** to play you. If I win I'm not going to feel "good" or anything, it's poker.

What did I do to deserve this gift? Look at how much you guys are talking about me. This is great
05-06-2015 , 02:10 PM
Id be in for hu.

Could also do dealers choice in the best of 3 when deciding game.(third game if needed, would be nlhe or chosen at random)

Or simply let two people play a different game other than nlhe if they want.

oh idk, maybe because we were basing it off my estimation of a 60% edge (which, granted, comes mostly from adjustments in the middle/later games of a 20+ match series, but w/e), and it would likely be impossible for either of us to have anything close to 60% in a handful of turbos. but you knew that already, and that's why you tried to slip that in there. don't front.

after we cleared up the "turbo" shenanigans, i quoted your post and said "book it". you never responded and then you went ghost for days on end.

you're the bitch homie
05-06-2015 , 02:13 PM
G10,

You originally said something about you never considering betting for real money.

After being confronted with the quote about extra EV is your new stance best summed as:

"Ok I implied I would play the sngs for real money, but never agreed to it, but it's not an angle shoot"


During a negotiation, implying terms and then changing seems like an angle. It's an angle in the sense you are trying to get the negative perception of "backing out" put on rep, rather than yourself.

Perception has value.

May not be an angle shoot but it's a bitch move. No doubt.

Maybe, just ****ing maybeeeeee that's why I said neither of us would be >55%

And I've twice told you when I could play, including today, so for ****s sake, stop this nonsense where you're pretending to want this to happen.

We can play tomorrow morning starting at 11:00am if you want.

If you don't want to play, you can still back out, despite saying "book it". As this is a really, really -EV spot for you, and I do feel somewhat weird about accepting. But getting a great spot was the only way I was going to do this.

Still totally up to you.
