10K HANDS HU MATCH edit: need escrow
 
Ok, so after seeing my HU skillz on display here

http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showfl...=0#Post11313104

Easycall expressed interest in a HU match. Here is what we agreed upon.

10K hands of HU 1/2 NL
Buyout clause of 1K (to be escrowed by respected poster..If you're willing please post)
I get 5% of losses back (capped at $500)
At least 3 HU tables

What we haven't decided on

Timeframe. I am free for the next couple of days.

I'm doing this because it will be good fun and hopefully a learning experience. Let us gogogogogogggo

4 tables, min now, ya?

I'm going out tonight. I say we put in a session tomorrow, Sunday, sometime in the afternoon, or evening.

4 tabling, we will play 1k hands an hour, roughly. So we could do this over the course of a few days, or one day.

Re: 10K HANDS HU MATCH
 
One more thing, I don't want to lose my $1000 escrow if I bust, so if either side loses $7000 the bet can be called off. Ok easy?

Rolen 07-21-2007 04:00 PM

Re: 10K HANDS HU MATCH
 
I will probably play 4 tables but I want 3 to be the mandatory amount.

easycall 07-21-2007 04:01 PM

Re: 10K HANDS HU MATCH
 
Why $7k? that all you have in your account after paying out the $1k?

Rolen 07-21-2007 04:02 PM

Re: 10K HANDS HU MATCH
 
I have more but i'm gonna buy a rolex with it, so 7K

easycall 07-21-2007 04:02 PM

Re: 10K HANDS HU MATCH
 
Also, there can be no leaving a table that becomes deep-stacked, to go start "fresh" with 100bb stacks at a new table. We play sessions through.

easycall 07-21-2007 04:02 PM

Re: 10K HANDS HU MATCH
 
Let me get this str8.

So, if you lose $7k, within 10k hands, you get your 1k buy-out back?

Rolen 07-21-2007 04:04 PM

Re: 10K HANDS HU MATCH
 
Yes.

If you want to play sessions through we're going to have to define a session, cause you could double up and then say you needed to go.

easycall 07-21-2007 04:07 PM

Re: 10K HANDS HU MATCH
 
Well, I don't do that, anyway...

but yes, I agree. We will define a session when we first sit.

I agree to the $7k thing, being your stop loss.

So, our stipulations

$7k thing
min 3 tables, but I want 4, but always min 3.
no "ratholing" - leaving when dubbing and starting a fresh table.
if one quits before 10k hands, 1k gets shipped to opponent, unless you have gone busto (7k) before (otherwise after 10k hands, we both get back the 1k, obv).
5% up to $500 is the max you can get back.

sound good?

just a quick note while reading this, if he gets 5% of his losses and his max loss is 7k, the most he can get back is 350.

this is simple. noone gets up. period. you play 3-4 tables until you've played 10k hands. take 5-10 minute mutual sit out breaks for bathroom, snacks every 2 hours just like WSOP. if someone cries uncle because they're tired, super stuck, realize they're not a favorite, etc, you lose your escrow 1k.

rolen it comes across as you getting more and more scared of easycall as this thread goes on.

also, objectively, the 5% back shouldn't apply if you don't get to 10k hands.

If you want to set your max loss at 7k, then you have to cry uncle at 6k and forfeit your amount in escrow.

Rolen 07-21-2007 04:12 PM

Re: 10K HANDS HU MATCH
 
Yeah good spot. Ok, make it capped at $350

I agree with this: "also, objectively, the 5% back shouldn't apply if you don't get to 10k hands."

Unless, it's after I've taken 7k off you, which is unlikely within the time frame, then you'll still get the 5% back.

As for playing all hands in one day. I really don't know when I'd be able to do that. I think we could try and do it in two sessions, for sure.

I can start it right now if we can find a mod to escrow quick?

Sunday

~3pm est - 4.30pm est we should start...plan to play to 9pm est, or later if we both want to come 9pm.

Sounds good?

If I can not make it tomorrow, which should not be the case, we can def. get this stuff going Monday 100%. Sundays are sometimes questionable with me, but I have no plans right now and will try to keep it that way.

Rolen 07-21-2007 04:23 PM

Re: 10K HANDS HU MATCH
 
I'm in England so 9pm est might be a little late for me. Can we push that start time back a couple hours?

I'm honestly not sure. If worse comes to worse, we could just play a session on Monday, 11am - 5pm est or something along those lines?

I'll def. be on though tomorrow, try to do it earlier, and hit you up. Sound good?

We are going kayaking, I have to run now.

1/k is pretty insane, you're definite good enough to go pro.
I'd call your boss now and let him know you quit.

I'm not a mod but I am willing to escrow the money if you want.
