I would like to risk $200 to win $1200 then.

Let me know, so I can arb it.

Yeah, I figured you knew that, just pointing it out. Almost didn't but I booked with Assani so it's all good.

PM'd you

Booked.

I sent you the money, as well as a PM.

Booked.

Why dont you just ask people you know/trust to hammer the Greek line for you? Is tying up the money or the interest off the Yes side that good?

What am I missing?

combination of factors.

My interest on the No is that high.

I've already hit everyone I know (outside of making a general request in this forum) to hit the Greek line.

Combine that with the ability to keep my money in play and my perceived edge, and I'm happy to book this at +600.

I'm more than happy for people to arb this against me, assuming they trust me and are willing to let me hold the money.

The falcons are bill simmons' sleeper this year. I irrationally trust bill simmons.

book a 9-7 record and the playoffs for the falcons.

i normally find simmons pretty harmless but that article was so bad imo...his first argument in falcons being a sleeper: "Joey Harrington is one the best offensive minds in the league."

...?

shremp want to give me 20 to 1 that jets make and chiefs don't?

if not I like giving you 6 to 1 on kc

you'd be getting 6:1 not giving... you'd be on the Chiefs DO make it

no shremp wanted to bet kc does make, i think

i'll take 2k of your action, on 6 teams even money. the only obstacle is that i don't wish to bear the opportunity cost of having 2k of my br out of comission for 3months. if we can work out a credit deal or have an interest bearing escrow acct setup it would def work. references and personal details from both counterparties are of course expected...

reply back if there's interest

Believe he was talking about Petrino but I just glanced at the article.

No offense, but your low post count is cause for concern on my end. Please PM me with your personal info and some references, and I'll see what I can do.

it shouldn't matter if he has one post if it's going in an escrow account.

Assani,

I can personally vouch for TrixTrix.

His low post count should not be a concern. He's a very respected poster with a great long history on another site. I know him (to an extent anyways) away from this forum, have his personal contact info, etc.

He's definitely good for the money if you were willing to take it on credit.

If not, I'd be happy to escrow it at an APY of 4.25% (the rate of my current e-savings account ). Not sure if that's a sufficient rate for what you guys are looking for.

(note: i'm not escrowing everything i hold at 4.25%, this is a very specific offer where I'm willing to do a personal favor for someone to transfer their held money from my poker account to my savings account and pay out the earn)

-P

Assani,

I'd take that fishy on credit any day. He won't stiff you. But he'll donate I think.

they call me "mr.donation"

I thought they called you a huge dick.

not according to my ex..

Fair enough...I will trust him then.

Just let me know exactly how you want to do it. Since people are vouching for you, I will be perectly fine with the honor system if we exchange phone numbers and addresses.

i'll pm you tomorrow (sat) w/ my contact details along w/ the list of 6 teams i'm claiming. just respond w/ your confirmation, and contact details.

I'm not betting. I'm just here to say that if this is a sucker bet, then I'm a sucker.

Also, I want to see how I "would have" done, so I'm posting my six teams here, to be graded at the end of the season:

Oak, Cle, Hou, Tam, SF, Ariz.

bump....last day to place bets
