He just said

"I will bet anyone in the world $100,000 that this tournament will be over by midnight"

Not a terrible bet IMO, unfortunately I don't have a liquid 100k to wager... lets get this bet on.

(Note that they still have a 2 hour dinner break)

Dunno if the bet would hold up in court - look how juiced up he seemed to be with his drinks.

court of public opinion is all that matters. if admo wanted to book it someone should send a message to the ESPN guys to read it on the air. if they announce it and he gets chans confirmation via cell from someone in the crowd then the bet would get paid.

Fiji, you do realize it means 12 midnight on the WSOP time. On these forums it would be 3AM. You do realize that, correct?

Yeah so he has to sweat 5 hrs and 45mins playing time but they also still have to take a 2 hr dinner break. Also i still think that there are 20 min breaks after each level (every two hrs). Also there are any number of problems with the espn that could hold up filming and therefore the final table. Meh there are still alot of chips in play but these guys are just moving them around so fast.

IMO this is pretty close. Its gonna come down to how long 3 handed and heads up lasts.

Haha, this is great. Anyone want action on either side?

It's a toss up which side I would choose right now... but even if I liked the over I'm nowhere close to being brave enough to book a gentleman's agreement for a hundred dimes with a pickled Johnny Chan.

I bet their are some people degen enough to bomb scare it for a 100k. I dont think you'll be in jail that long.

after that double by alex - i think it's an over play now.

daryn
07-17-2007, 09:21 PM
i'm not even watching haha.. i know nothing of the final table other than some all ins that i'm being fed by friends because i made the bet. .. just wanted some fast action. but think about it, if that guy won the kq v 33 coinflip the under would be looking great. as it stands now the under still has a chance obv.. so pretty good bet i think considering i was just a coinflip away from looking good and now still can win.

trying2learn
07-17-2007, 09:23 PM
oh for sure...when chan said that - my first thought was to come on and find admo too...i loved the under.

i'm just saying with how deep alex is - and can still get now - he's got to have a strategy of trying to chip away slowly at yang the disciple of god.

got a dinner break to slow everyone down too. it'll be close...but i dig the over now...

Play resumes from the dinner break at 8:30 Vegas time with 4 players left.

Tuan and Alex have ~11 mil
Rahme 33 mil
Yang 71 mil

I think blinds are up to 250k/500k/50k either when they get back or soon afterwards.

If Tuan or Alex can double up and with us seeing 12 hands an hour, this will be close.

HU could take a while, but since Yang is likely to be there it will likely be pretty aggressive HU.

QFT.

on day two or three of the LO8 tourney the alarm went off and no one even said anything, much less got up and left.

[censored], could you imagine what a stampede it would be if they had a real fire/alarm whatever go off in the amazon, especially on like the super satelite day?
