Half-curious, half-making sure it's covered...

Do you get paid X times if the same person wins X bracelets? And I assume circuit rings don't count? Make sure to post the lists here for us [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Artsemis --

Yes. I wanted the possibility of a win/loss every day; Camel wanted to be guaranteed something to sweat every day. So we hit on a $100-per-bracelet system.

I'd prefer that Camel not post the teams here. If people know who I value I suffer from obvious disadvantages.

I don't know if I agree with you, Nate... If your regular sweat team comes out rooting for your runners, it can't bring anything but good luck to you... [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I'd do a similar prop bet on a smaller scale (like 10-20$ a bracelet) just to keep me interested..

I am VERY happy with my team... And whatever sweating Nate does won't compensate for the skill advantage my team holds.

Good luck, it should be fun.

Camel --

As Americans go I'm pretty Anglophilic but yikes, did you load up on Brits.

Yuv --

Sounds good. PM me.

Ontario_Tory --

Good call.

All --

C'mon! I need half-marathon motivation! I'm hopelessly out of shape! (Also discussed has been some sort of "run Big Sur and then shoot 100 3-pointers in 4 hours" bet.)

Wow, I was drunk last night. Anyway, what I meant by this was approximately "if you pick me for your WSOP team, you will win that bet, and also, while I have no interest in running a marathon, I am interested in getting in shape this summer, so perhaps we can help one another toward our respective goals."

I doubt many people on this board will have heard of Praz Bansi.

But, I promise you, within a year EVERYONE will have heard of him. He truly is a very special talent.
