Dude are you serious? It means if he starts at say 1pm he ends at 12:59pm when the 15 days is up.

The fact he has to play longgg marathon sessions while 50 tabling is what makes the bet interesting

plus that would give him a huge amount more time than calender days. account for sleeping, eating, bathroom breaks, etc

He said 360 hours. It's a valid question.

I would rather bet against Boku in a 60's challenge fwiw.

He meant 360 consecutive hours. It's a valid answer.

Well, it's not really a valid answer when the question is "Do you mean 15 calender days or do you mean 360 hours of total play time" and he then answers 360 hours. Obviously I'm sure he meant, 15 days/360 consecutive hours, but his answer threw me off a little so i thought i would ask him again, making it more clear what the 2 options were.

I would against me there, too
I don't think I can play breakeven at 60's nowadays

The 360 hours is consecutive!! Just to make sure that when I start at 6 p.m I am not missing 18 hours of play. 360 hours playtime would be too easy

i guess if you did a bunch of coke you could stay up around the clock to get this done.......but still, there is no way boku will win this.

It is hard to tell how many action is left because a lot of people claim they would bet but back out or never send.

I think I will open a new thread for betting as of right now I think I only have a couple grands in guaranteed action

One can go over 2 weeks without sleep by taking a "bunch" of cocaine?

YTD 10-45 man =< $15 stats
YTD 10-45 man =< $5 graph
YTD 10-45 man =<$15 graph

So it looks like his biggest swong was -$600.

$1.10 -> $3.25 -> $6.50 -> $12.00 -> $16.00? He can probably skip the $3.25's.

Seems crazy but he might be able to pull it off.

Of course he's going to have to put in more than 3,000 games in a 15 day period which none of the above ROI's reflect.

You can easy check this by going to the leaderboards and select any game and then the limit, this is even with the 90 and 180 man sit and go included.

All these people didn't have a $100 go broke limit and didn't have to start with $1,10 tourneys to build their bankroll or have only 360 hours to reach $10.000 profit.

GL Boku and i ho[pe you will get more action because of this post because it's not as easy as a lot of people think.

what would be a fair timeframe for $100 to $10k playing cash games instead? 15 days and 3:1 still appropriate? easier? harder?

I am willing to bet on Boku87 up to 10K$ that he will make it with the standard 3:1 line which means I am beting 1K$ to win 3K$ (or multiply).

GL, I won't offer an opinion even after reading all 22 pages and killing an hour I could have been playing. Maybe I should just set something up so I get 25 cents from each person betting against you for every time I knock you out before you cash.
