i don't play that many hands.

iow, i'd have to make an effort to do 50k/3mo
09-16-2008 , 07:42 PM
I was an 8.3 ptbb/100 winner at 100NL 6-max for my first 17k hands. I have been a -3.31 ptbb/100 loser over my last 17k hands. I'm just gonna ignore the last 17k and say I'm an 8.3 bb winner.

fair enough spivey, I think that changes the game a bit so I probably wouldn't want to bet you.

Ricky, you wouldn't be the first.

I really, really like Michaelson's side of the bet against anyone that's not playing 400nl+.

Do you think it's easier to achieve this at 400NL+ or something?
09-16-2008 , 08:23 PM
michaelson, how much are you willing to bet me and do I get slight odds? I was thinking 3/2 bet
09-16-2008 , 08:27 PM
Michaelson,

I am a total spewtard with a tilt issue (that said, when I am on my a game, I am as good as anyone currently playing 1/2.) You are taking a neg ev bet imo:

09-16-2008 , 08:32 PM
that's only 4 PTbbs.

edit: not that that's bad or anything, it's def. solid.

I've given it some thought, and I think I'd put up to $2k down that you couldn't beat 100nl for 6ptbb over 100k hands within a 3 month time frame.
i might be willing to take a much larger side bet for a higher winrate at 100nl

I obviously meant a 400 nl player achieving the win rate at 100 nl.
09-16-2008 , 08:38 PM
balbomb, how many hands do you play on average per month and what limit would you want the bet at?

The time frame for the bet is important and player dependent.

Also, you're BamYeah right?

Johnny, ptbb=bb*2.

I'm a little confused about what you are trying to say.

I think 6pt/bb at 100nl is definitely doable and if I didn't have a job / got enough action I might give it a go..

The only thing that's kind of annoying about it is the luck factor. You can run very hot / cold even over a 100k sample.
09-16-2008 , 08:40 PM
terp, I can't afford much more, but what sort of winrate are you talking?

How much action are you looking for? I don't want to bet that much, but am willing to wager in the $200-$500 range. I'd also like to take this at even money, or something like 6/5.

I obviously wouldn't expect you to accept this bet for $500, so if you do have other action, I'll certainly wager in addition to it.
09-16-2008 , 08:41 PM
i'm thinking something like your 15k to win my 5k and i can beat 100nl for 8 or 9pt
09-16-2008 , 08:44 PM
No way I can afford that much, I might put down 3k on 9ptbb as long as a few considerations were taken into account.

lol you realize you are in ssnl right?
09-16-2008 , 08:47 PM
Michaelson, I'd be willing to bet on your side for most of these bets. I don't want to lay 3:1 on the Terp bet though.

Im u2killers

I think I can beat 100nl at more than 5ptBBs, I play about 50k hands a month, maybe make the best over a 3 or 4 month time span?
09-16-2008 , 08:57 PM
balbomb,

Was the bet for 5 ptBB or 6 ptBB? I think you could do it for 5 ptBB as well.
09-16-2008 , 08:59 PM
Getting ready for super serious grudge match, so I'll come back to all this, but just quickly: My initial thought was that this bet would be for 200nl, so I'm much more cautious about conditions at 100nl. Also, the idea will be to replicate grinding conditions, not to allow some proven big winner to dip in and out of the games for a few months whenever they look juicy.

So, yeah, don't really like that bet u2killers.
09-16-2008 , 09:01 PM
well gl in your match michaelson, we can talk about our bet later, which names should we search for so we can watch the HU
09-16-2008 , 09:05 PM
PropisitionMike v iamlegend8.

It's not really super serious, though.

Also, at this point it's looking like a forfeit, where are you youngmoney?
