Swings,

Your history of posts, here and in other forums, is interesting.

Assuming that the month is a 31 day month. This averages to $3225 a day. Rate that at 6 hours a day $538 an hour. Assuming 6 tables thats $89 an hour per table. 6man tables running at 70 hands an hour thats $1.28 per hand. Does anyone who plays 3/6 run at $1.28 per hand (over 78,120hands or more) here when they are multi tabling 6 or more tables?

By that same math, if you 8 table 12 hours a day it's doable.

It isn't *very* doable and you're risking major burnout/playing your B- game, but for 100K? Maybe.

even Zeebo said some noob was at his table for a while, so get your facts straight, if you want to sweat our entire match I've posted details of it on the other thread on page 15 or 16.

Actually, I looked all over for Zeebo and could never verify that he was there. The only 10/20 NL on pokerroom at the time didn't have a guy named zeebo in it. I don't even know if that's his screen name, though. Since he didn't mention any different in the original thread, and I came on and said I couldn't find him and nobody clued me in where zeebo might be, I'm gonna have to be behind swings on this one. I looked in the regular tables and the private tables over and over and just couldn't find anything that looked like a zeebo.

And I did see that flalouc or something, like swings did.

Don't let uber-troll destroy another thread. I've actually been thinking about this and there are a list of problems that could occur as a result of this bet. The problems I see are as follows:

1) The bettors against Zeebo sit in his games and thus make them much more difficult to play than they should be otherwise.
2) Friends of the bettors (or more dubiously people paid by the bettors) play Zeebo in his games thus making them more difficult.
3) If such a large bet is made over the internet, even players who have no relation to either Zeebo or his opponents might decide to railbird his games making it much more difficult for him to get action on hands.
4) Assuming there was a pool of bettors against Zeebo it would take only one dishonest bettor to completely ruin the bet.

Now, there are obviously logistical problems that I have not thought of; but this was what I came up with off the top of my head.

The best I can come up with is that Zeebo plays under aliases which are unknown to the bettors. Disclose the names of these aliases beforehand to a neutral third party. Sklansky might be willing to write down some names and I doubt he could be influenced to divulge them one way or another.

Zeebo then records the dates and times of his play along with hand histories and if he cannot he forfeits the bet. It seems like it is possible to make a large prop bet here; but only if proper precations such as third parties who cannot be influenced by large sums are brought in. It seems like Mason and David are ideal candidates and El D might also be someone to consider as well (assuming he doesn't want in on the action for one side or the other).
