(OT) Some Things I Want To Bet On
All --
It's been too long since I've been involved in a prop bet. Time to fix that.* (A) I'm out of shape now and currently don't own running shoes. I've never completed a race longer than 5K. The Big Sur half-marathon is in November. The bet would be that I finish under a certain official time. Note that the course is pretty difficult, and that training will have to be fit in while I gamble/work my butt off in Vegas (and the Vegas heat) all summer. (B) I pick a list of N players, submit it on June 1, and the bet pays off if one of them wins a bracelet. Value of N and odds to be negotiated. (C) I pick a list of M players, submit it on June 1, and the bet pays off if one of them wins the Main Event. Value of M and odds to be negotiated. Any takers? Post here, PM, or (those of you who know) AIM me. --Nate *I'm posting in MTTc because (a) some guys around here know and maybe even trust me, and (b) two of these bets are MTT-related. |

I would be interested in having a match bet.
We pick 10 or 20 players each and the the team which wins most bracelets wins the bet. Would be prepared to bet up to 1k on this. Let me know if you any interest in this. |

I'd be interested, though I sort of like the instant-win all-or-nothing nature of the "I pick N" format. --Nate |

I'm happy to play for as little as $100. If you are up for it.. I'll pm you to arrange details of the bet. |
