PLO200 prop bet - 150 BI's in 31 days PLO200 prop bet - 150 BI's in 31 days

01-21-2010 , 01:30 PM
I am claiming I can make 30k $ (150 BIs) at $1/2 pot limit omaha Six Max on Pokerstars in a period of 31 days, starting at February 1, and ending March 3. The betting odds are 3 to 1, putting me as the underdog.

Information about me:
I’m 18 years old, been playing poker since May. I’m still in high school and having exams very soon.
I work out every day, football 5 times a week and twice in the gym. Maybe going for SNE, which is why I’m doing the prop bet. Just to get motivated to grind VPP’s.

Username: Donkpredator

I will take action up to $45 000 (your 45k to my 15k)

When: February 1, 2009 01:00 AM ET until March 3, 2009 11:59 01:00 AM ET

Wazzbot on Pokerstars and Brian Hastings on FTP agreed to be escrows.
The judges are mig, krmont22 and gordo16.


These are the proposed set of rules. Additions and subtractions may be made in the next coming week as people and judges give their feedback.

1. I must have a web-cam on while I play. I will not be disqualified for accidental or technical problems with the web-cam. If I have problems and it continues, it will be up to the judges to decide whether I should be disqualified or not. The link for this will be http://www.justin.tv/donkpredator#r=GUhAkKo

2. I am allowed to leave the web-cam to use the bathroom or to grab some food from the kitchen.

3. $30,000 must be won, after paying rake, and not counting rakeback or bonuses or pokerstars frequent player points or money from anything other than the poker games. If $30,000 or more is won, and all other conditions are met, I will win the bet. If $29,999 or less is won, or any other condition is not met by me, I will lose the bet. I may end the bet at any time if I claim to have won the $30,000 prior to the end of the 31 day period. This does not stop the clock from ticking. The 31 day period continues to count down, so I may continue to play if I wish in case the claim is not accepted. Regardless, hitting $30,000 of profits at any point during the 31 day period, if verified, results in me winning the bet, even if I subsequently lose money back.

4. Those who bet will be given my cell phone number. During these calls, you will request that I type a specific number (1-9) into the chat. Once you do this, I will be given one minute to type the given number into at least four chat boxes on my table. For every 750 dollars you bet, you will be allowed one phone call (max of 3). If I miss the call either I’ll give you a call back immediately or just give me another call. Once this is done, you are required to post in my progress thread to confirm that I passed the test.

5. The only situation in which I will be allowed to void this bet midway through is a death in my family (sister, brother, mom or dad). Documentation would have to be provided.

6. Those who wager are strictly prohibited from sitting at my tables unless you are a regular or a semi regular at 1/2 PLO six max. So if you normally play 5/10 six max, you will not be allowed to play 1/2 six max. You also are not allowed to collude/purposely slow down tables. If the judges feel they have enough substantiated proof of a violation of this rule, this will result in a forfeiter of the violating individual's wager.

7. Following the bet, Scottyy will post in the thread with my results. If people don't accept his results, then the hand histories will be sent to the three judges and they will determine who won the bet.

8. I must buy in full with the auto rebuy on. If it happens a couple times, this isn't grounds for the bet to be void but if it continues, then it is. It will be judges discretion.

9. As part of the motivation for the wagerers may be entertainment, I will provide dailyish updates in the progress thread. Good faith effort to update at least every 24 hours is expected, but this condition will not be considered breached until I play one hand when 72 hours or more have gone by without update.

Please review/discuss

I know you're in off season for football right now. Assuming you're 18 that means you're HS football career is over, so you don't really football 5 times a week do you?

If I were you I'd change the rules if possible, your setting yourself up for some nastyness. Rule 8 is clear but I'd just chance it to have it actually make 100% sense . Also I'd add severe sickness to the part where forfeit by death of family is no grounds for a win by bettors. You might also want to kind of prove the fact you do all those things. Your life is very busy as it seems which could be a (important) reason for the bettors to bet on, I think you'll get these odds easier when actually being able to show any kind of proof for doing these things. You also might want to post a minimum wager for some small time rollers like me :>.

I suck at NL and you asked me if I wanted to 6 table you a couple of hands in the match(which is the same as berating imo). Sry

I think it should be mentioned that mig is a reg at 1/2 plo and plays a ton of tables, and wazz can also be found at 1/2 tables from time to time.

So you should be able to play about 180k hands in this time frame. That's a winrate of about 4.17 to reach 30k in earning and you're a 6.01 winner on PTR. But you want us to give you 4:1?

Not if the difference between sleeping 5 hours and sleeping 8 hours could cost you $62.5k
