Default Re: WSOP Main Event Winner: Male or Female?

If it's 9 players we are talking then I think the under is the right side. I was mistakenly thinking it was a 10 player FT for an avg. weight of 180lbs. I know this one goes over more often then not, even taking into consideration the trend of poker players getting their stomachs stapled.

I would never make this over bet on an EPT event, as I need to count on both a low % of women players and a high % of chubby american players at the final table.

I doubt there is a single stomach stapled pro under 180.

which side is the easy money?

female definitely looks better yes?

Is there anything else that has never come close to happening, on which you'd like to take +1000?

I saw a guy jump into the East River once. When they pulled him out, they asked him why he jumped in. He said he was trying to jump OVER the river. He was pretty sure he couldn't make it, but the odds he took really had some value...

btw this is just ridiculous to say, terrible logic on so many levels.

how about betting on the likelihood of a woman president after the next US election? its never come close before so no way it happens in '08 right? ill gladly take a bet that the next US president is female with good enough odds.

Of course you would, because men don't dominate politics the way they dominate poker. There are plenty of female senators, governors, mayors, etc. There are NOT plenty of female NL champions. Your presidential example does not compare to the topic at hand.

in fact i just thought of a better analogy, which works pretty much perfectly.

consider last year making a bet that an australian would win the wsop.

australians had never even come close before in the ME.

Yes, that "works pretty much perfectly", if results-oriented logic was the way to analyze these things.

I'll give you all the +1000 you want on the women, and all the +1000 you want on the Aussies.
