Thanks for all the replies. Obviously my bet is slightly flawed with the bet only being $50, assuming I win the 50 bucks then it works out to 0.0001 ptbb/100 hands (assuming its 25nl). Ideally that would be slightly higher but when I made the bet I wasn’t too bothered about the money. I think its more about pride and just doing this as a challenge. The last poker prop bet we had was that I couldn’t play poker straight for 36hours, which I lost by 6 hours. My friend played World of Warcraft and my other friend one tabled FTP 10nl without rakeback and made 60c or something. He is really bad at poker and says stuff like “I’m just gonna lean on this guy and try and get him to fold” or will when he has like J2o on a 2 6 7 8 9 monotone board and it was 4 bet preflop. Occassionally he’ll shove his MacBook under my nose and he’ll be like “What shall I do here?” and he has a busted gutshot draw and has Jack high with three people behind him to act. He nearly made enough money to buy a pint of milk. We gave him a lot of [censored] for that. He sometimes plays at our uni poker soc and people offer to pay him for his FTP screen name. I 8 tabled 25nl but couldn’t quite make it to 36hours (managed 30 but collapsed because of too much pot, N.B smoking dope constantly throughout this was –EV for poker and also the prop bet). There are some pics of the session stats below (Wasn’t using PT for the first hours). That prop bet was for free car journey from Scotland to London so obviously it was pretty sick when I lost by 6 hours and had to get the frigging train.



Back to what you lot have said, I would like to move up to 50nl but whenever I move up I just play scared money and don’t want to c-bet and stuff. Maybe I’ll take a shot again. I will admit my stats in DB1 are REALLY bad and the ones in DB2 are pretty bad but its all about just making the 1,000,000 hand mark and taking a screenshot for my brother. Then I can buy those Subways.

I guess the morale of my poker career is that I just can’t leave micro stakes poker because it is really enjoyable and I can beat it (just). I have a lot of respect for all you high stakes ballas (anything above what I play) but for me I think unless I can get staked I will just stay where I’m at until the day I die. Hopefully I can hit 1mill hands as well, then that’ll be a really cool PT screen shot. By then I may have enough Stars points for an I-Pod nano or something to make me feel slightly better about my life.

To answer some questions on this.

1. It’s all 6 max poker and I usually 6-8table depending on my mental state.
2. I will post a graph tomorrow because my DB is my other PC
3. WuTank you can have my SN for 10bucks
4. I have considered a buyout but he is having none of that and wants to see me fail
5. CaptainBusto if I make it to 1mill then I will obviously end up doubling or quits the $50 with him for making it to 2mill so I will take your bet
