  1. Rules and Info
    • I have exactly 31 days (816 hours) to complete the bet from March 19th 9am until April 19th 9:00 am. I must play 16,000 SNG's and profit $10,000
    • SNG's must have 6 or more players to count and all SNG's must be played on Full Tilt Poker. My screen name is Stinko_Mikko
    • SNG's must be in the $6 - $75 buy in range
    • I cannot play super turbo SNG's the first 5 days or the last 5 days of the prop bet.
    • I will have 3 web cams up at all times for anyone interested in watching, any technical difficulties will be handled immediately.
    • Three judges will be selected and approved by both parties, me and the bettors.
    • I play at the CW office and the restroom facilities are located about 30 feet down the hall, I will be permitted to use the facilities as often as I like.
    • Anyone who wagers will be given my cell phone and can call anytime to verify it is me playing. I do not have a twin brother as far as I know. Abusing this privilege will be examined by the judges.
    • The only situation in which the I will be allowed to void the bet is a serious injury and three independent doctors must sign documents stating I had a serious injury. A death in the family is no reason to quit playing and since I have no immediate family, will not be happening.
    • Those who wager against me cannot sit at my tables unless it is your normal game. Judges will monitor this closely at all times.
    • Buy outs during the bet are allowed from both sides, but are up to each individual better.
    • I have a blog which can be found at sngnick.blogspot.com where I will try and post updates a few times a day.
    • Full Tilt has a maximum table limit of 16. At no time will I be playing more then 16 tables at one time.
    • If I reach $10,000 before I have completed 16,000 SNG's, I must move up in limits from the buy in of the game I played most. For instance if I played 6000 $14 turbos, I would have to move up to the $22's until I completed the 16,000

    * Two Full Tilt pros will serve as escrows. If you are interested in betting, please PM me and I will give you the names.
    * When the bet is complete and the winner has been determined, payouts will be dispersed immediately.
     
  2. first post here?
  3. cmon, the other one isnt even over yet.

    eh, whatever. put me down for $1.
  4. x
  5. i wouldnt care about the money u make, just the fact that u cant play 16k sngs with a max of 16 at one time.

    id bet on this but im broke on ftp and we will need to find a very TRUSTED holder for the money.
  6. Find someone you trust and if I know them they can escrow for us.

  7. so ur going to ply 516 sngs a day for 31 days straight plyn 16 max at a time?

    haha, u need to be able to ply more than 16 to have any shot, maybe im wrong. If its only 16 max , let me know where to send the money
  8. My bad, I forgot to put in the rules that it is 2.5-1. The main thread for this is on another forum and its clearly stated, I somehow forgot to post it sorry.

    If your still interested Josh Arieh is an escrow and Full Tilt Pro. Transfer to him and he will let me know when he gets it and I will confirm with you.

    16 is the max, at no time will I be playing 16 or more.

  9. Youre an idiot, you cant do it, stop coming up with these stupid bets that no one cares about cause Boku is doing it.
  10. First of all I had no idea who Boku was when I posted the bet a week ago. Second I am 100% at least trying and if you think I cannot do it, make a bet.

  11. K how much action are you taking?
  12. Up to 30k. Josh Arieh is escrow on Full Tilt and looking for one on stars.

  13. I might be interested here.

    1) Is there a fixed amount of hyper turbos you can play? i.e. you can angle shoot this if you are doing mostly hypers then subbing in higher buyin games since average profit per sng is under $1 a game and you can fit a mad amount of hyper turbos in if you are 16 tabling. There must be a cap if I am wagering.

    2) Is there a fixed bankroll where if you lose the bet is also over.

    3) Verify I can play in any games $50 and up you are in. I don't put my volume in on FTP, but do play there, and don't want to have any accidental problems if I do wager.

    GL either way, #1 is the important one to me. I would not be willing to bet if there is no cap on hypers. Best thing would be to eliminate them altogether from the bet.
  14. There is no cap, but I cannot play them the first 5 days or the last 5 days. And if I reach 10k in profits before playing 16k sngs, I must move up in limits from the game I played the most.

    16k is still alot of sngs even with the hypers, but not willing to lay 2.5 to 1. GL to you though, I am sure others will be interested...
  16. ill bet 1k to win 400. only have stars though

    Well that's certainly not true. How many more copycat prop bets can we expect in the following weeks?

    That said, GL to you on your own bet - copycat or not. I think it's going to be tough but following Boku's challenge has been fun so when it's over it might be nice to follow a new one. Your bet coincidentally starts on the day after Boku's ends, by the way.
  26. The profit part of the goal is an easy target. (60c/game... unless he runs like absolute shit he should be able to accomplish that)

    The volume part will be more difficult, but it's doable with 21 days in which to play superturbos. OP should be able to win this bet with little trouble and at least 5 days to spare.

    LOL....guilty, and I apologize to the OP.

    My intent was to determine the likelihood that the OP would accomplish his goal and that's all. Guess I got a bit overzealous, sorry.
  29. no soup for you.

    I was doing some math, and then threw my calculator and my math away as soon as jennifer spoke up.
  30. Goodluck....over 500 SNGs/day for a month.
