parameters of the match

OK KKF, I see that you said that you are ready to roll. Here are the parameters of the match that I propose. If you object to any of them, post or pm me.

1. We will play heads up 10-25 until one of us wins $50,000 from the other.

2. fsu player will serve as the moderator. We will each transfer $10,000 to his account. He will hold that money and return it to us when the match is completed. However, if either of us backs out of the match before it is completed, fsu will send the entire $20,000 to that person.

3. We will play between the hours of 9:30-4:30 EST Monday through Friday until the match is completed. I reserve the right to deal with situations, such as my son getting sick, etc that will pull me away for a given day or couple of days. You can do the same with legitamate reason.

4. At no point will we play deeper than 15% of the match amount. In other words, if and when we BOTH have stacks over $7500, we will close that table and open a new one. The reason that I am stipulating this is that I want the match to be decided on our merits and skill as poker players. If we allow the stacks to balloon, I don't want one or two critical hands - lost coin flip, etc - determining the match. This stipulation will of course create the greatest likelihood that the best player will win.

I think that is all I have. I understand that you are out of the country - is that correct? If so, I would also like to get your IP address when we start playing so that I can verify that it is really you playing me and not some ringer. As you know, I live in Boston and would be willing to do the same for you.

Let me know if you agree to these conditions. I will not be checking 2+2 over the weekend. I may or may not log on later today. If you agree to all this, we can start the match this Tuesday (after confirming everything on Monday). We could probably even start on Monday if you like.

Samo,

1. We will play heads up 10-25 until one of us wins $50,000 from the other.

In your other thread you said

'We will play for a total of $50,000. The match is over when one player loses $50,000.'

Best to clarify which condition holds prior to the match starting

I think you wrote this this incorrectly.

Also, I'm unsure what you think KKF sending you an IP address will prove.

KKF lives in thailand, so chances of him getting patrick a. or mahatma to play in his place using his IP are quite low.

What I mean is that we play until one person wins 50K and the other loses 50K.

The issue is rake. If one person is down exactly 50K it is guaranteed the other person will be up less than 50K. While this may not end up mattering, it would be good to clarify.

So if I email you a Thai IP address and then play you on UB I must be in Thailand? Also, KKF could reroute somebody elses traffic if he wanted to.
