Spoiler:
so after Jalex's ruling, now it's come to light that Fees apparently didn't even escrow his part of the bet (the 25k). wtf


also blows my mind how everybody is calling him "fee's". goddamn people and their inability to correctly use apostrophes.

anyone in here interested in a samsung 305T 30 inch monitor? I bought it used and it works great, but its not compatable with my video card. Judging from samsungs website its only compatable with these video cards:

nvidia geforce 8800gts 7900gt 7800 7600
ati radeon x1900xtx x1900xt x1800xt

if you have one of these and are interested in the monitor just pm me, i'm willing to get rid of it for 700$ cuz its doing me no good.

Iv been following that prop bet from day 1 because i was sure he was never gonna be able to ship it, which proved correct. I then carried on following when the new prop was done, more out of curiosity than anything. Then all the epicness started and I must have wasted so much time reading that thread yesterday, looks like il be following it a while longer too.

Im still amazed that noone seems to think its odd that SO fails so damn badly at .5/1 but absolutely crushes at .25/.5. When i was moving through the stakes I hardly noticed a difference in play between these two levels or maybe its because its been so long since I played 50nl.... I dunno just seems wierd.

i took the pro route and read it after i was done for the day.


50NL v different to 100NL IMO FWIW and yeah it's quite dubious how good he's doing at 50.
12-15-2010 , 04:35 PM
annoying question i know... but how much rakeback are u guys roughly getting per 100k hands of 100/200 rush (sorry i know it's a v vague and lame Q)? if someone could pm me or post some numbers here then i would greatly appreciate it.


(ps, i know it'll vary somewhat)

Well my initial reason for not betting was that there was not enough information about Silent_One, therefore there was a risk of something shady (actually a higher stakes player/some PTR inside knowledge angle etc etc). The fact that Fees could get to 4th in the leaderboard from 8th to 13th December shows that this is a genuine concern when dealing with a bet with like 80k upside.

I guess your implication (Johnson) is whether there is an angle about him using 0.5/1 to lure action at 0.25/0.5.

Firstly, it would be pretty bold. I mean you are risking 12k to get action on a bet. He then got another 12k (I think, but adjust if wrong) at a better price of 8/1. So if it was an angle, it resulted in him getting the equivalent of 4/1 on the 0.25/0.5 UGL. Although actually maybe more like 5/1 or 6/1 as he was setting up separate side bets unknown to the judge and at 10/1. However, he lost the 1st 4 days or so of play by doing it this way.

Would he have been able to get a better price by just trying to arrange a 50 UGL bet initially. Thats probably unclear as I think people would initially have viewed it as a lot softer, given most pros don't play there. Also, how the **** does someone playing these stakes have 25k or so to go putting on these type of bets?

Anyway, this is only conjecture out of interest, and all is probably legit. I am currently hoping Silent ships it, whilst banking on Jalex to bring out popcorn moments to spice things up

hey, this should be an easy question for 100nl players in here. i have a friend that plays roughly a 14/10 style. how much rakeback/1k hands will he get roughly? i told him a guess in the dark was probably about 10$/1k hands after the rakeback change. i used to play a similar style at 100nl before the changes and got about 14.5$/1k hands.

is this non subtly aimed at me?
12-15-2010 , 04:50 PM
Ye im sure there is no hustle in the way he got action for the 50nl ugl bet, that would be pointless as im sure he could have filled action at 6:1 from the off. And seens theres a 24 hour stream of all his play, its 100% that its the same guy playing. It just seems kinda off to crush one stake and fail so badly at another, like the gap in skill level between the stakes is being grossly over represented by his play imo.

But hell, if nothing else he's provided a damn entertaining thread.

no its not lol, altho i can see how u think that because of the timing of my post....serious question tho. my friend is thinking about moving to ftp and he just wants to make a guesttimate on the difference in bonuses he will receive at 100nl. i mean im sure he can find the answer on his own, but i know theres plenty of 100nl grinders in here so i just thought id ask.

from my understanding stars 100nl is a big jump from 50nl cuz its possible to get SNE at 100. dont play there so no idea on real difference though. seems perfectly possible guy ran really bad for the 4 days or so he spend at 100 and his ran really well since moving to 50. but yea, it does seem a little weird for sure
