I am not entertaining offers on the lower levels. I am willing to let Dale try this at the $5 level. Anyone else who wants to attempt it will have to play $10 or higher. I am not an idiot.

I believe Al was in, saying he would be playing the 1+.10 on stars before you decided to change the rules. I think it is only fair that you let him attempt your challenge at the buy in he requested.

This is a challenge for real poker players. You do not see real poker being played at $1+.10


I could allow mini poker stakes, but my bet max would decrease to $10 to win $100. That would not be worth it to either party. I want this done legitimately. I do not want to see someone hit 50% against bad play or even worse players colluding just to win the challenge.

[acelah]

I would definately take that bet, someone hold the money in escrow and I will do it, obviously not in my interests to collude as this could be found out easily

[acelah]

to clarify what are the minimum stakes you would allow? $33 is to steep for me I would take this bet $10 - $100 just to make a point at the lower levels.

what point would you be making? We all know lower levels are full of players who don't know what they are doing. If you want to take the challenge you must play $10 or higher limits. Your $100 will win my $1000.

[jgunnip]

wtf is this "real" poker you speak of?

[Newt_Buggs]

Up the bet to $1000:$10000 and I'm in.

If they are putting up then I am. I have no problem posting up 10k or 100k for that matter

This should get interesting. Many players trying to play nickel and dime $1-$10 SnG to play in the challenge, then we get guys coming in raising the prize level.

Looks like the players 2+2 is know for have just showed up.

Would be nice for WVU to consider the 1000/10,000 chlleneg ... but will they agree to the rules that could be the problem that stands in the way,
