Default SossMan positive reinforcement and HU tourney thread

I dont know Soss from Adam.

But I do know that he is a very valuable contributor to this board, and I admire what he is trying to do in this thread.

While negative reinforcement is often a good way to get things done; positive reinforcement often works a lot better.

So my challenge back to Soss is this:

If you DO hit your target by the WSOP, I will contribute $25 to the prize pool of a HU tourney that you will play against a regular poster who is selected by a vote of this board. (I'll deal with the structure of the tourney and the criteria for the selection of your challenger at a later date).

Of course, I encourage others to piggyback their contributions (of equal, greater or lesser amount) on this thread. If we get the level of response that I expect, the tourney might offer a nice little prize pool to Soss (or his forum selected villan).

We're with you man, thanks for making me a better player.

i'll donate some money towards a deep stack 2+2 NL tourny, if anyone could set this up.

I will contribute $50 to a HU challenge against Sossman for the boards choice, if he makes his target.

There's nothing like being hungry to make you irritable, and I look forward to many caustic entertaining threads.

HU means heads up. Assuming he hits his target, Soss will play one person who we will select via a poll.

Nh. I'm in for $25; just PM me when this happens.

You may get more people interested if you let only people who donate money vote for who he plays.
