[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] This is a sick feat- anyone saying otherwise is retarded. [/ QUOTE ] Some people feel forced to assert their own coolness by belittling any accomplishments of others. I don't get that mindset and never will. That was my point. Someone thinks it's so easy and is "sure they could do it"... yeah, turns out they mean they think they could do it if they got 5000 attempts. Well, that's quite a different thing, isn't it? [/ QUOTE ] she did this on her first try? [/ QUOTE ] No idea. Don't even know who she is. All I know is that in trying to minimize her accomplishments, you way overstated your claim and are now backing out. Anyone can claim anything if they subsequently give themselves 5,000 tries, or 5,000 to 1 odds. Do you want to bet straight up or not? You said you were sure you could do it. Is your position now that you are 1/5000th sure you could do it? [/ QUOTE ] Anyone can claim ANYTHING based on 5,000 tries? I'll bet you you cant win the Sunday Million without looking, even with 5,000 tries. I'd even bet grando he couldn't! Heck, even annette! [/ QUOTE ] I didn't say they could do it, I said they could CLAIM it. Do you see why that is relevant to this discussion? Look hard. [/ QUOTE ] I don't really get it. Anyone can claim anything with any number of tries, from 1 to even 5,000. Why is the number of tries relevant to whether they can CLAIM it or not? [/ QUOTE ] That's exactly right. It is ridiculous of me to claim to be "sure" I'm able to do something, and then demand 5,000-1 odds. If i can do that, then I can walk around insulting anyone and belittling anything... then when I am called on it I can just say "Well, by sure i could do it, I didn't mean, like, just go out and do it. I meant it would be worth trying if I stood to win a lot of money while I risked nothing." Of course the odds are stilted because it's not easy to do, which was the point of the original post... which your subsequent posts about this bet prove true. So you went from bragging about how easy this was to demanding giant odds because it's so difficult... Do you see why that's ironic?

THATS RIGHT POCKET FIVES
SEX WITH ANNETTE  btw i've never seen a person's words get twisted as much as grando's has this was a rebuy tournament right? plus she said she peeked at a hand. to use the basketball analogy, yeah when they pull the guy out of the crowd at halftime and he makes the full court shot, it's pretty cool pretty cool

When grando said he could do it, it was IMMEDIATELY obvious to everyone who gambles that he didn't mean he could do it every single time, or even more often than half the time. Thats what gambling is. I feel like I'm explaining this to an 8 year old.
