in total, I want to put up 8-10k on my side. i think that on average, with rakeback and any profit ill have around 8-10k so I just breakeven for this month or ship the prop bet!

ya, there is alot of variables in this that will make me lose. though, the most simple one is the fact of whether or not I can even profit against pokerstars players. i barely play there, and playing on the euro sites may be more fishier and have less aggression then i am used to.

also, I havent given the volume required much thought. i plan to put in 150k-200k hands in the month but i did something like this before for rake races on the euro site and i couldnt play good because I was burnt out from so many hands.

from may 1st to july 1st i played for races and although I made money after sick rakeback deal, i couldnt beat the game



^ thats me trying to 8-10 table nonstop for 2 months, and its all 100nl

If PTR continues to miss Full Tilt hands next month, doesn't that make this prob bet significantly easier? Still hard as heck, but if he doesn't have to worry about the full tilt players anymore that is a significant portion of his opposition, no?

I really don't follow these PTR badges. In a typical
Month how many of the top 10 come from FTP?

just checked each month, and a fulltilt player won the badge 2 out of the last 14 months (since they started the UGL). im not too sure about the status of fulltilt hand tracking. are they currently experiencing problems with fulltilt or something?

BTW, ive decided that i need 50k of action against me or I am NOT doing this. i just wont have enough motivation.
beyond making like 6k in rakeback from milestones/supernova, I dont even know whether or not ill be a slightly losing player to a winning player. if I had to guess, id range from -0.5BB-1BB/100 running average.(though obviously i need to run good to win this bet) the last 14 months, the average winrate of 1st place was 6BB/100. i think if i wasnt on a downswing for the last 2.5 months, i would never do this bet.

Sent.

Ok iv just started to try to get money on Stars to send for the bet and its ridiculously difficult to get $3K on even as an UK resident. Had no idea it was so hard for people to get decent amounts on sites. Anyway its going to take me a few days to get the full amount on but im 100% in for 3K.

Received $600.

the sickest thing about this prop bet is it's kind of out of your control, like if some dude decides to just outgrind you or runs like jesus, you could play your A poker the entire month and still lose, pretty sick

do you think you need a stipulation for something like MagicNinja coming to play battleship @ 100nl a few times this month? Like it's not chip dumping, but it's basically playing 5/10 @ 100nl

i doubt it's going to happen or if it would affect you, just something to think about.

Yes, they have only been tracking like 10% of ftp hands for a week now. I'm not sure why.

This is part of what makes this bet so interesting. If some crazy drunk HSNL players decide to make NL100 their personal battlegrounds for some sh*ts n Giggles and end up skewing the data...then so be it!

OP is friend with Cole it seems, so we assume CTS won't be playing battleship at least...then again...

silent_0ne 3.2k to 19.2k

willing to put up to 10k on my side.

on a side note, for the last 12 hours I have vomitted around 10-12 times. its awful and i feel like im dying. my friend says he thinks i have food posioning.

all what that says is happening to me, and if this was halfway through my bet, I wouldnt be able to play at all. im barely alive trying to type this message. I hope this goes away soon!!!!

I had it a few months back, its awful for like 24 hours, then kinda ****** for a bit longer, then u magically feel fine

Wow what a sick prop bet. Jalex too. You don't *** with the jalex.

GL silent one. I really don't think you can do this but I won't be betting as it looks like it is a disaster waiting to happen / people may shoot angles hard here. I'd feel confident that there's nobody better than jalex to judge but you might want 2 more (CJ / hodge) to be on the safe side? I'd offer to help as I'm not betting but I have a sick busy December. GL!

OP is angle shooting. He is planning on skipping christmas to play the online pokerz and therefore have an extra day on everyone else.

Is Jim betting against?

hahaha, nice

This. It is HORRIBLE tho, hope I never experience it again.



Also, received $1800 from kerpowski.

I had salmonella earlier this year, OP, and it was the worst week of my life.

To make matters worse I had it during my "big" FFB league's draft, and I ended up with the worst draft in recorded history.

Since you are european you probably have no idea what I am talking about, but it makes me feel better to vent.

And since my wager depends on my week, here is my week so far...



Running total for prop bet: $259

Really doubt OP will make this bet but I hate having part of my roll tied up for 1 month so I'm not gonna bet.

Is the UGL winner a combination of factors such as volume, bb/100 and profit, or just total amount won?

I heard natisfinest was doing 450K hands at 100 NL next month

but nahhh, he actually grew a pair and moved up

*in b4 natis berates my playing ablity*

And ya, as chicago joey said. this bet will be very interesting if it goes down with everybody going for SNE, bonuses,

and all the regs putting in volume during the first 'real cold' month depending where ya live

Total amount won.

jalex is a sick judge but more help would always be appreciated! i want to make this bet as legitimate and fair as possible!

yah, the awful part is pretty much gone. just kinda feeling crummy right now. looks like its gonna be over pretty soon

hey man!
nope, hes going to be part of my cheering section however, i do have 2 real life friends betting AGAINST me

im canadian :P, i believe ur talking bout fantasy football thing

get grinding!

to win, you need most profit but in general that also requires a sick winrate (avg winner had 5.8BB/100) and a decent quantity of hands played!

ya, definetly going to decrease my winrate

willing to take up to 10k action!

PS: @AlligatorBloodFTW - 100% celebrating christmas and new years! :P

Im having a nightmare getting funds on to stars and when i finally do it says iv got a max transfer limit of 1k perday. Any way 1k sent to HibachiMahiout of the 3k i said and hopefully will get the rest of funds onto stars and sent before bet starts.
No wonder the fish dont deposit as much anymore its ridiculous carry on for what is smallish amounts.

ya, just do the max per day until its all sent. no problem with that.
