haha no problem, buck is just a regular poster on this forum who uses a lot of commas. Every sentence,,, goes like,,, this,, lol.

And you seem to do the same

blankoblanco · Feb 14, 2009

buck is awesome though, so that probably means sue is awesome too. thx for the kind words, i'll let you know if i need a rail. FTP screenname is the same as my name here if you ever want to search me and check out my games

i'll post an update tonight as this concludes week two and marks the halfway point of the bet

switch0723 · Feb 14, 2009

my guess is that this is actually pretty close, and you are prob only 300 hands above or below target pace. Thank the sweet jesus that you are running bad so you arent crushing this bet

$49.97 for buyout.

Update for end of week 2:

Okay, so. Week 2 has been semi-disastrous, but I guess I've basically broke even over the ~11k hands of the week, which is sort of amazing to me. Basically had three days in particular (one being today) where I ran spectacularly bad and the rest were fine and normal. Today sure pissed me off, but I didn't really let it affect my game at all, which is a damn good thing considering how many big laydowns I had to be clear-headed enough to make. It's like Howard Lederer is sitting in a control room laughing maniacally and tinkering with switches while eating a cheeseburger. I haven't even gone broke on anything that wasn't a complete set-up. AK vs. QJ in a 3bet pot vs. a fish (great preflop call, bro) -- flop AKT. TT vs QJ in a raised pot vs. a fish -- flop AKT, rinse repeat. You get the idea. Not going to bother posting any of the hands from today because all the noteworthy ones are me getting violently screwed, and that's sort of annoying.

Graph for the month:

Let's have week 3 be like week 1 but with more hands, gogogo

switch0723 · Feb 14, 2009

2.5k off pace? = >1 day? = wanna send monies now?

also Lederer is a vegen no?

Crystal Blue · Feb 14, 2009

Well done so far combuboom, I have every confidence in you, gogogo.

blankoblanco · Feb 14, 2009

so he claims. but someone proposed for him to eat a cheeseburger for $10,000 or something and he insta-booked it so i bet he's faking. who gets that fat eating fruits and vegetables?

switch0723 · Feb 14, 2009

and i thought wtf ill take that bet, then lederer ate the burger to win the 10k, and now still says hes a vegen, and its like yo dude, you ate meat so stop lying to yourself

eNTy · Feb 14, 2009

Very nice work so far Combu.

I think you performed some excellent damage control in this week, if only by judging what I read and hear. and 2.5k off pace is nothing to worry about at all. That's like 1 big session.

Keep going at it and you got this in the bag.

I'm saying this to support you and to piss switch off ! win/win ldo

The Shrog · Feb 14, 2009

Still think 50k is in reach. gogogo.
