I concur with TWPs tone.
Also- the poster right before you had some salient points. I cant wait for a 6th post.

Not sure if it was intended as sarcasm or not, but here's number 6:

I just read the whole topic, all 21 pages. You people are insane. Betting $1K on whether or not some nameless, faceless stranger on the Internet won or lost money is the most retarded thing I've ever heard of. Highly entertaining, but retarded nonetheless.

I will be shocked and amazed if anyone ever collects anything as a result of this. IMO, this topic has a 90% chance of degrading into an Internet sissy slapfight over who welched on whom and why.

I've got $1.00 that says so - any takers?

didn't have time to read the entire topic, but this is one spectacular bad beat. Had the hand the whole way - sick daddy cash on the line...anything but that heart and it's a lock. So naturally the H comes. lmao.

Ah, it's so nice to read about someone else with a hand like this - I thought for a minute there that I was the only one with luck that bad.

You had better be doing some serious levelling somewhere for 'the most retarded thing you've ever heard of' to have any meaning to me.

I fail to see the relevance.

I think it's retarded that two strangers on a message forum are betting $1000 that some 3rd party won or lost.

what does that have to do with me leveling? Superiority complex much? I know everyone on this site is a millionaire and all, but $80K represents a lot of money to me. Just under my annual salary, and about $79,996 more than my average Omaha bet (4-8 half kill). So yes - IMO, that was a pretty bad beat. I suppose an ace on the river woulda beaten him too though, in hindsight. Still..the point remains. I'm amazed that he got called by A-J for that amount of $ in the 1st place - that's retarded in and of itself. Sure, he might have caught a H, but he had to know he was beaten....trip 7s, pocket pair - so many hands that beat him there and a 10% chance of winning with one of the 3 remaining aces or a heart? Is that worth a $25K call? Would you call $25K with that?

And then for the heart to hit - that would push me off the deep end. Guess I'm not as cool as you.

I think you misread the hand. good2cu's opponent caught his flush on the turn which is when 50K went in to the pot.

Ah - so I did...just re-read that....my eyes ain't what they used to be and I'm not used to reading through text recaps.

Thanks for the clarification - much appreciated. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I'm still not sure what my "leveling" has to do with my thinking two Internet strangers making a $1K bet over someone else's winnings/losses is retarded though.

That remains constant.

OJO- I didnt mean it to be offensive- it was just a natural reaction to a post that missed some critical elements of the hand. And in true BBV spirit I pointed out the number of posts.
You were treated the same way I would treat anyone in BBV. Thats not a beat.
Fwiw- I concur that money is not likely to change hands here based on the details of the actual bets and problems inherent in it that have been pointed out in various places in the theard (holla).
But this is BBV- and we encourage bets like this/reactions to it - and also to some extent arguing over the retartedness of it (and your mom).

Welcome to BBV. Enjoy. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Why?


Seriously.


This thread and this bet epitomize BBV, or at least one aspect of BBV.


Is it because your integrity is being called into question?


I railed the other morning for maybe five minutes, saw you had huge stacks on some tables, got killed on some others. You said your winnings, it sounded plausible, some dood called BS, another dood called BS on his BS. And they laid the money down.

This whole thing is fantastic.


Are you supposed to be untouchable?

OK, to summarise:

We have Jman28, Inyaface, and raptor517 all confirming that he, indeed, won the 10K. From good2cu, we have a screen shot, and I have in PM his starting and ending bankroll which indeed are more than 10K apart. They are precisely as far apart, in fact, as the screen shot would indicate and this PM was before he had the PT stats available.

We also have a few additional people (e.g. Dean) vouching for g2cu's general trustworthiness and unlikelihood of being inaccurate in his representation of his results.

We also have highstakes's datamining, which does not cover 25/50 but which shows him being down 10K more than the PT stats indicate. Highstakes cannot explain this difference since he doesnt have access to the PT data, but his explanation is that it is possibly an error in PT, in his data mining, or somewhere in the site software.

My view is that the fact that the PM (which I can share if g2cu allows) is from before the PT stats were available and precisely confirms the amount won indicated by the PT screen shot, along with the confirmation from Jman, IYF, and Raptor, shows sufficient proof for me to win the bet. I think the data mining is inaccurate and highstakes, himself, does not confirm its accuracy.

Rolen, do you agree?

dude. "thread". once is a typo, twice is a learning disability. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

and i agree with you. i find rolen's obsession a bit bizarre. and i'm a bit disappointed at how everyone has overlooked my successful shot-taking.

[/ QUOTE ]

Nath, you made 9k in 20 minutes, right?

Dare I say woot?


In terms of obsession, it might be because 1k is on the line. That is still a healthy sum to many.

Plus, I believe it was TWP that actually proposed the wager, after Rolen seemingly just tossed out a statement in passing.
