    Okay,

    First of all, brand new to the forums, but i'm sure some of you know who i am (well online at least). I look foward to posting here aa bit in the next wee while, just moved to london, so i don't have a lt of people to bounce ideas off.

    Second of all, i'm gonna put out a challenge to anyone who wishes to take it up. Any ideas on ow to settle it or something to play for would be great, but i'm all for a pissing ontest, seems what this site is about anyways for the most part lol.

    I challenge anyone to make more money than me in the $109r, $162 nightly $100k, $320 $150k weekly and the $215r on stars, and the $162 freezeouts on FT in october, november and december. Your results up to this point count of course for october (which i sadly have none), and since it's all nice and trackable we'll be able to see who wins it.

    I suppose it doesn't really matter if we play for anything at all, or whether you want in on the exchange, cos i'm certainly gonna ty to win this contest with you guys!

    Have fun, see you at the tables,

    rjm

    For those of you who do not know rjmgrace, he is a classy, honorbale guy from the outback who is a pretty darn good player.

    If stealth or daut or any of the scotty haters want some prodding, rjm and he play very similarly!

    As a matter of fact, I dont know how much rjm is willing to wager, but whatever he does wager I will wager the same amount on rjm according to whatever terms he agrees to as long as everyone starts from scratch if people want to do more. He is the nuts.

    p.s...as a matter of disclosure, i do not back rjm.

    By make more money do you mean net or gross?

    I'll be down to make that bet with you, but in interest of full disclosure I have ~ 30k in cashes from those tournaments this month.

    i think fischman is pretty good besides his hu game, he has a weird style but it works out in mtt

    but i think rjm is def way better, i wouldnt really want to bet against him unless i was betting on sctrojans or ape or some other sicko that puts in sick volume

    thought i replied to this once already, not sure though, dunno if i did something wrong lol.

    alright, in the interests of sheets being able to fade the bet, we'll make it from october the 15th (sry gambleAB!) and at the moment i think it should just be about pride, but maybe we can put some money on it, if anyone can come up with a good moderator as to how it's gonna work (remembering that gambling over this is kinda silly since it's about who wins the MOST money, thereby making any amount of money you put on it relatively meaningless). Otherwise, we could do a sort of humiliation thing.

    In fact, that's perfect, as i'm typing this i come up with the perfect solution. The person who makes the most money fro October 15th till the end of the year gets to choose the avatars of the other players on pokerstars. Now i know there's a lot of ways around getting it changed etc, like changing your pic just before the end of the year, and if you do that good on you for not taking the loss, but it's probably the best way to go.

    So, if you put in this forum after this point that you're game to play, then so be it, I'll keep a list of the names and we can go from there. you have until october the 14th , and we start taking results from monday onwards. thepokerdb keeps track of it all so there shouldn't be any problems tracking results.

    good luck all,

    rjm

    P.S. just thought about it, it's just gonna be total winnings, not net profit or anything, just too messy with the rebuys, and much easier to track total winnings.
