Plus I noticed he said he had to win 3.5bb/100 inluding bonus AND ALL I take it any bets he wins is included?

[/ QUOTE ]No, I assume he means 3.5bb/100h in pure PT accounting sense, not counting in FPPs and above all any bets. If you include the bets themselves it gets recursive and ridiculous.

You assume WRONG he clearly stated in his op that bonus is included in the bb/100. I am not trying to speak for Renton or stick my nose in where it doesn't belong but I don't want to see fellow 2+2ers getting upset with each other over a bet. Once again good luck Renton I am pulling for you.


Here is a quote from his op.

"-at minimum 3.5ptbb/100, hopefully >5ptbb, which would yield twenty buyins plus bonuses."

Notice where it says "plus bonuses" seem to me he is including this in his win rate which is what some are betting on.

Uh, no. "Plus bonuses" would indicate that bonii are not included. But if you're right, and he's saying that they are, that's retarded and my bet is off.

I'm pretty sure this quote indicates he's not including bonuses in his ptbb/100. He said hopefully 5ptbb/100 which would be 20 buyins which is 5ptbb = 10bb * 200 = $2000 = 20 buyins and then bonuses on top.

I played 28200 in the last 3 days last month to win a most hands in the month propbet and my eye's burnt afterwards.

Your biggest challenge will be staying awake, my eyes blurred after a while although i didnt prepare very well.

Good luck renton

K, about to start.

The following is the updated list of bets that ive accepted:

-blunty for 100 dollars that i'll make it 12 tabling for 24 hours at all

-Das Budrick for 50 dollars that i'll run >3.5ptbb

-Ron Burgundy for 50 dollars that i'll run >3.5ptbb

-TheProdigy for 50 dollars that i'll run >3.5ptbb

-Fiasco for 50 dollars that i'll run >3.5ptbb


Other details:

-mlane, u were unclear of your bet parameters, so we'll declare it null and void at this point. I don't want to make any bets having to do with precise time (i.e. "will i play exactly 24 hours and play >20k hands?". get back to me on if you still want to make any bets

-also i'll have to be lame again and say that i won't take the bet for the 2k stack table, unless of course its for a small amount like 20-25 dollars AND i get 2 or 3 to 1. the 2k stack, just like the 5ptbb/100, is a pretty ambitious goal, and i don't like making minus ev prop bets.

-For the 3.5ptbb bets, i mean 3.5ptbb in pokertracker.
