Wait - who (besides you) is saying that 3:1 is a good deal here? Who is offering that action? Anyone? I hear you asking for it but that's it.


If you find any, I'll take YOUR position for better odds than that.

There were a couple people who were willing to take it on page 2.

Anyways I think that BT is right, we should drop this. I want poker, nobody else does.

Plus this way I don't have to read books.

It is impossible for you to do this. I think after a couple weeks it'd be worth 10k just to see some terts.

i think this is a far cry from impossible and for the right price, i would definitely do it, on the terms i listed above. i just don't have the 100k i'd need to escrow lool.

Why not just change the prop bet to "no porn" and "no forums"? It seems obvious that everything else in the prop bet is a gimme in your normal life.

"Yeah, that would be really ****ing tough."

It actually took someone pointing it out a page later before I got it.

OP, this bet is doable as long as you keep things to kill time. The moment you lose all those things the bet will be a living hell.

Revised bet >>> OP's bet and is more representative of laying 3:1. LOL at OP trying to haggle poker in, which is obviously the biggest stumbling block for most potentials bettors. Allowing/not allowing poker is probably the difference between 2:1 and 1:2 here.

The thing is I assume not allowing poker would be massive -EV for OP: he would be having a ****ty time, as well as not being able to make any money. I don't think he has enough money to bet on it that the difference between 2:1 and 1:2 would overturn this loss.

The only way this is a legitimate challenge is no computer, no TV, no nothing but your walls and whatever book(s) you choose to bring into your apartment.

No offense, but allowing yourself to play a video game or poker is enough to relieve your mind from the presumed torture of "solitary confinement"

Food, 4 walls, and a book - thats a challenge.

this whole thing is dumb.

I would do food, 4 walls and books for 60 days if someone gave me 4:1 on it.


PM me if ur interested, I'd want someone willing to put at least 10-20k.

Books? Pfft. Maybe if there's not many, but more than you can read makes it so much easier, though still annoying. Someone should go for rice and water for a substantial time period with absolutely nothing that could possibly be used to pass time except your own mind. Pens and paper a no-go.

YEAH LET'S CUT OFF HIS AIR SUPPLY TOO, AND MAKE IT 6 MONTHS, THEN IT'S PROBABLY ALMOST WORTH IT AT 3:1.

I may have set myself up with "worth it just to watch you die" comments.

It's not too late to edit, but it might actually make the thread good so idk.

"Okay: To all who say that this is easy: How long have you gone without looking at 2p2?"

oh yeah for sure this is the real tough part

I never suggested this, but you seriously need to make it more difficult.

I mentioned this in a previous prop thread, think it was the bathroom living one.

I went on a vision quest a few years back. 3 days and 3 nights, one book, pen and paper, nothing else. Even with the book and writing frequently, it was nearly impossible. On the third day of what was basically light sensory deprivation, I felt like I was literally going insane. Like, I thought to myself, "this is what insane people must feel like all the time."

Don't underestimate the psychological difficulty of this. I could not even imagine 60 days. Without unlimited movies or poker, I would bet against this at 10:1 all day. Unfortunately, I'm a busto college student, but I think this is much more difficult than it's getting credit for.
