Default Samoleus being a jerk, I challenge you to a headsup match!

So I play at Fulltilt and at Pokerstars, and my account was at .97 cents at Fulltilt. I really had no way of loading at the time and I wanted to play in the Ferguson $1 tourney. So I'm short 3 cents, but I've got money on stars so I'll just do a swap right?

Now I'm pretty sure most people have 3 cents in their account, but I don't know that for a fact. I don't keep detailed bankroll analysis spreadsheets for every single player on the internet. But I do know that Samoleus is a baller, and has a stars account, so I ask if we can swap 3 cents. 3 pennies. It'll take like 2 seconds right? Wrong!

He proceeds to text laugh me (lol) and then says there is a minimum $5 transfer. WTF??? He thinks I'm some cabbage patch kid trying to get the women money? Of course I know about the minimum fee ya goofball! But I don't need $5, I clearly stated 3 cents to play in the Ferguson tourney. I had heard the guy was a weirdo and had some issues before on this board, and truth be told I chalked that up to jealousy really, but man was I wrong. When I was a young man a poker player would never disrespect another poker player in that manner. If you can't do it, just say you can't do it. Don't LOL me, or disrespect me in any other similar manner. And if I wanna swap 3 cents, don't act like some big high roller, saying you can only transfer X amount.

So, tomorrow night after work I plan to deposit $50 on stars, and against Chris Ferguson's bankroll strategy guidelines, I will play Samoleus headsup in either razz or stud hi/lo around the $5 range. With rake, that's more than 10% of my bankroll, and I don't care how risky it is, call it tilt, call it defending my honor, call it teaching some arrogant guy a little humility, but I am ready to do this.

Tomorrow night, stars, 10pm or later. Let's see who's LOLing then big shot.

Why do you need three pennies if you can deposit yourself?

All you need is 10 bad beats and that would destroy your entire roll. I'm not saying I'm Evil Kneival, but Im sure Sklansky ouldn't dig this bankroll strategy.

Because I have to deposit with visa gift cards, and it was late at night and I didn't have any.

I'm dead cereal. This actually all started from a thread at the internet section of the forum on Fri or Sat night I believe, when someone aimed me and said I should ask Samoleus.

MikeR,
i would like to play you HU, but i'm not sure i feel comfortable with you having more than ten percent of your roll on the table.

Shall we play triple draw, five card draw, or five card stud?
