GL...FWIW I think this is a huge sucker bet for anyone betting against you and getting less than even money...

I'll post what I did in the other thread:

OK, now that the challenge is started, I'll go ahead and say it. Am I missing something here? Mkgringo hasn't even made $10k in 5700 lifetime SNGs (ave. stake $23) and it looks like he's been pretty much breakeven over his last 1500 SNGs (probably when the effects of UIGEA wrecked the games). Even if he somehow hits 5% ROI he'd still have to play 7400 games.

I just don't see how he has any chance in this challenge unless he's been honing his game on another site and has been receiving a ton of teaching.

check spacegravys stats before he started the 25K challenge.

my guess is runhot has been playing better lately or has a pretty good reason to think he can be somewhere around an 8%+ roi or so.

with all the action he took i would be very surprised if he did not make the bet.

Are all the updates for the challenge going to be in this thread or did I miss something? I want to track his progress.

he doesnt owe 10k because he was laid odds on all bets against him, but the money he is required to cover (somewhere around 6.5k) is already in my account. I was under the impression that everyone knew how an escrow worked ...

hey amt I think I've seen some of your videos. name sounds familiar. anyways rules seem to have clearly been laid so I don't think it matters if bettors didn't know odds was put.

and to player..gl man! hope you can keep on pace with volume and not have early results tilt you! gl to betters also but if he can do this I think it will help motivate some of us lower stakes guys.
