$100 to $2500 in 1 month - Interesting wager

[mittman84]

that is hilarious.......you should re read the section in your poker book on pot odds

[BigPoppa]

Play 6max

[gilbert]

the only bad thing is to do this you (i) would 4-6 table starting at the .50/1 level and only having 100bb's means you could probably go bust pretty quick.

if you run hot at first i think this is definately doable.

[Chlamidiac]

I will give you 9 to 1 next time. and no stipulations on when you can move up

$800 to win $6700 isin't acurate (you were probably joking but I'll take this opportunity to be a jerk anyway)

its $700 for $4200.

if he wins the bet he will have won an additional $2500 from playing.

I dont understand what you guys are talking about when you say its not risking 800 dollars to win 6600..

Im risking my $100 (my 100 stake to play with) and my $700 (wager) thats $800 dollars total, and I stand to win the $4200 from my friend, and the $2400 from playing.. Thats 6600. Im confused on why you guys are saying that isnt right?

Anyways thanks for hte insight thus far. Mittman been to Soaring eagle recently?

right, but if he never made the bet but still played he would have that $2500 so it shouldn't factor into the EV of the bet.

[/ QUOTE ] hell no....$5 rake, full tables, no rakeback, 10hrs live = 1 hour online in terms of hands......but do want to go donk it up in the new $100 NL game for kicks

[RyanCMU]

Haha the games are soo juicy though [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] I dont play NL but from watching the games and my frinesd palying in them they are pretty soft. And the 6/12 there is pretty good. But yea online is much better.

So in essence, I stand to win $6700 ... for a risk of $800 ... So I decided to accept the bet.
