The prop bet is to turn $20 dollars on Poker Stars into $20,000 dollars in three weeks time. I can do this through cash games and/or tournaments. I can't use my fpps and I'll keep my I chat open through out to verify its me (web cam). I will get a big wig high stakes escrow. My alias is Castorrtroy. I will also take screen shots to verify account data. PM me the line your willing to offer and how much action your willing to take. I'm looking book a few K's on my end.

... correct. I should have made that clear.

Didn't you already make a thread for this? ... Started with a lot more money and had a lot more time to complete, but it never took place. The thread got derailed fairly quickly so I think it would be best for people just to pm me. I hope anybody not interested in taking the bet doesn't post in this thread at all, other then to say gl,

Just checked, so you're doing $20-$20,000 instead of $250-$20,000 now?

When are you planning on starting this bet? If I remember correctly you had all your action booked in the other thread?

edit: nvm, just checked old thread, don't you think you would get action faster if you set a line instead of asking ppl to PM you with an offer? also how much $ are you looking to book specifically?

...Any games I want to.

"edit: nvm, just checked old thread, don't you think you would get action faster if you set a line instead of asking ppl to PM you with an offer? also how much $ are you looking to book specifically?"... This is the way I would like to do it. I said a few thousand so when to much action comes my way I'll post it in the thread... first come first served so they say.

GL OP, if this were more out in open would be interested. Don't understand this secretive cloak and dagger PM thing.

Makes me a bit uneasy and wondering what angle I am missing.

If we discuss openly about what the line should be the thread is going to get derailed... the less people have to read through the more likely they'll give action. Everybody is going to get the same line, but I want to let the market dictate it, because in all reality there is a slim chance to none I win. That being said pm away...

Poolside... reading is hard...pm...2.5 to 1...no

Maybe if you weren't allowed to play any HU cash or HU sngs i would give you 3:1 odds. You know things like this that give you less angles to cheat.

What are you fifteen? ...let me ask my dad or the older boys at twoplustwo for advice on making a line. Everyone will get the same line anyways I just wanted to see where people were leaning with it...since this is the attitude of twoplustwo... then ill set the line at 4.5 to 1.

noarmsdanny...1) kiss my ass for calling me a cheater you scum bag. 2) 3:1... if I was durr. 3) If you want 3:1 and no heads up then I should be able to use fpps to play tournaments and I should get 31 days.

I'll take a piece at 3:1, no HU, you can use fpps accumulated during the bet only, 31 days.

Are you guys serious? $20 into $20k and you're giving him 3:1 w/ restrictions?

I'd take this bet @ 10:1, OP can play anything, and RB/bonuses count

what you mean is you wont get the line you want, since this still suffers from the same issue as the last thread which is not having a max limit you can play

Tho to be fair, $20-20K at 4-1 is like orders of magnitude better than $250-20K at like 9-1 or whatever you wanted before.

save all the derail mumbo jumbo, every prop bet thread is 1000+ posts of crap and nonsense, its part of the territory. If the bet doesnt happen its not because of a derailment its because not enough people want action.

Lets work out the rules smokey so everyone can just jump in with their bid...

1.) no hu cash or sngs
2.) no body that partakes in the bet can sit at my tables
3.) 31 days
4.) ....what you got

How do you think you can do this?

There's practically no chance.

You mentioned a webcam, how will i be able to access it? Not critical to the bet for me, but you did mention it. How can i make sure that you are not using more than $20 for this challenge, or fpps etc. Let's get a 3rd party to hold money and do this

how are you tracking winnings/losses etc.

Also, can you at least mention what games you plan on playing? looks like you've been playing plo, sticking to 6 handed cash for the bet for the most part?
