Won a 3 million dollar prop bet
 

Recently I bet a well known poker player (who requested to remain anonymous) that I could walk into Congregation Ner Tamid and lead an entire service posing as a Rabbi. Using my excellent beard and cunning Hebrew skills, I won this bet. Given that until the time the bet was placed, (about a month ago) I had not practiced Judaism at all, nor spoke a word of Hebrew, I believe this to be one of the greatest prop-bet accomplishments ever. Please discuss.

Assuming that this post isn't itself part of a prop bet about people believing a crazy story.... wow. well done, sir.

In other words, I really hope this is true, because it's frickin' awesome. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Hey Barry,

For those of us who are not Jewish you might explain what all that entails. I guess the whole service is in Hebrew?

At first I was going to say, lol posingasarabbiaments, but then the nit in me awoke and I got to thinking that your prop bet may be mocking the congregation's faith. I don't know what to think, but congrats on the 3 million.

You rule Barry!

BTW, I'm guessing the loser of this bet was none other than the worst prop bettor in history, Daniel Negraneu. He wrote a fake blog about Barry becoming a Rabbi some time ago.

Re: Won a 3 million dollar prop bet
 

Can you give us more details on the bet? Preparation, etc?
