Help me put a bad beat on Cancer and Humbertos shark
 
I'm sitting next to Phil gordon in the 2k event today. We were chatting it up for quite a while and the topic of 2p2 came up and he had a really good sense of humor about being voted most pathetic player.

The topic of the humberto shark thread came up and he said how much he longed for someone to steal or destroy that shark. I told him well fine, pay me and promise i won't get 86'd from the series and i'll do it. He said he can guarantee the worst i'll get is a 15 minute penalty. I said lets turn this into a charity drive, i will post it and we'll give half the revenue to your Cancer charity. And so the bet/dare is on. Phil has already put up $1000 of his own money to make this happen.

If you are willing to support my quest to steal or destroy Humbertos shark and are willing to put up money please say so and how much in this thread. Half of all proceeds go to put a bad beat on cancer. Also, i absolutely 100% promise i will get several camera mens attention to let them know i am doing this ahead of time so the video can hit the internet. When i grab it i will of course yell random things like "SAY GOODBYE TO YOUR LITTLE FRIEND" or whatever else people want to suggest.

Also I pose the question to the forum, should i just steal the shark, make a scene, and keep it as a trophy, or does this thing need to be destroyed?

Thanks, Bond18

I will definitely be willing to contribute to this IF you make sure you scream and get the ESPN cameras over to see it. Make sure you wait to act on your hand until they come over, then calmly get up from the table, grab the shark, and melt it over a flame.

Sell it on Ebay and donate proceeds. It'll make it harder to Humberto to be a little bitch about it.

You should pull down your pants and stick the head of the shark in your butt and moon Brenes while you do it. Then offer to give it back to him.

I mean where's the other 50% going to? The Bond18 Nobu/Craftsteak fund?

why wouldnt he get to keep half? there's a risk he'd be kicked out of the tournament.

About a month ago people were going to put up a few hundred for someone to just do it, now that someone is willing to do it, people are bitching about him taking any of it.



Shut up.

Unbelieveably lame that you want to keep 50%.

Although I'm not sure how Phil Gordon can guarantee you won't be thrown out.

I would do it with 100% going to charity if I knew I wouldn't get 86'd.

I don't see how Phil can guarantee it, but nor do I see how this sort of thing would be an 86-able offense...kind of depends how Humberto takes it.

How about this, Bond--if you get 86'd, you keep 100%, if you don't get 86'd, you donate 100%

Not entirely sure that's a beneficial situations; are the chances of being 86'd that much lower that he has to risk not playing in the ME?

If it is, then sure :P. The PR will be great, especially if Humberto doesn't take it badly and it is reveled as a friendly joke.

Seriously. I bet there wouldn't be any bitching if OP offered to do it and asked for backers, then afterwards said he'd donate half to charity.

Well, right...I'm not saying it's worth it to risk being 86'd, but doing this 50% thing isn't coming off too good, is it?

Here's my advise to Bond--do it for the sake of publicity and charity, don't keep any % for yourself and don't destroy the shark, just abduct it.

Maybe get an ESPN producer's attention and tell them about this idea, the Kidnapping of Humberto's shark might make for an interesting segment for them (and they already love showing things about Bad Beat for Cancer), and, if it goes down like it's a fun/playful thing, for charity and with ESPN involvement, then you'd have almost no risk of getting barred from the property and you'll come off like a big hero on national TV!

I am willing to give you 800€ over Stars (about 1000$) if you go through with this. Three of my friends were badly humiliated by this retard and his "chark". Need proof though.

The problem with getting ESPN involved IMO is they would be all for it as long as you give it back to Humberto at some point.

As far as taking half if someone wants to do it for free then jump on up. The thread a few weeks ago was offering cash for someone to do it.

Then again if Bond is loaded then I say he's going to come across like that young man in BBV who went to Vegas for his first time, won a toy for a kid, then charged him $5 for it.

Re: Help me put a bad beat on Cancer and Humbertos shark
 
Hi Bond 18:

I actually have problems with this. First off I have found Phil Gordon to be highly insulting towards me and Two Plus Two in general. Apparently he didn't like some criticism about his writing he received on this site. Those of you who attended BARGE last year will know where I'm coming from. Gordon also seems to be very disliked by many of our posters, so it's also questionable to me to be supporting someone who has this stature.

But there's another more deeper issue here. If you look around, we don't charge for stuff. Of course, if you're an advertiser you get charged, or if you purchase a book, they're not free, but we don't charge any of our users to participate here and we don't ask them for money. This is something that's important to me and to the philosophy in which we established this site.

But it's also my experience that many people don't like being asked for money no matter how good the cause may be, and again, I personally question whether it should go to someone's cause who has been publicly hostile to us. But I'm going to get even more specific.

At the end of last year I established the Mason Malmuth Foundation. It's a private charity in which I funnel a little of my own money into to support a cause that I happen to like. I've never mentioned it in public before and until now, only a few people knew it even existed. My reason for not mentioning it is simply the fact that I didn't want to make anyone here feel uncomfortable.

So if you want to give some of your own money to some charity (like yours truly), that's great. But I do feel uncomfortable with the idea, and it has happened before, of threads appearing where a poster is asking other posters to donate money to some cause, and this is the case even if the cause is well worthwhile.

Best wishes,
Mason

Give the other 50% to a charity of Humberto's choice. I'm not too high on the 50% thing, but if you aren't profiting, I'll see to it that the appropriate ESPN producers will be notified and ready when you're good to go.

then humberto will guaranteed to be aware of it and it will be more circus acting time for him when the time comes which is why everyone is sick of him.

I just want to go on record and say that I have started my own charity called The Sponger Foundation, and I am accepting donations to my full tilt account.

Ok really though Mason can you tell us more about this charity and what cause it benefits?
