anyone think i'd be able to find action on this for 2:1? i think it'd be massively +EV for anyone betting against me, but hopefully also +EV for myself since it would motivate me to play

I think I could find 2:1 if it was for 50k hands + a win-rate condition.

man, i want to try to play 50k hands at 1/2 NL FR on ftp in february. i wonder if i can get any prop bets on that (with odds), cause i sorely need the motivation

background: i've never played more than 10k cash game hands in a month, ever. i've never played more than 2k hands in a day, ever. i've played more than 1k hands in a day two times in my life. i'm an incredibly lazy sob. i don't and won't be mass-multitabling, i only play 6-9 tables

anyone think i'd be able to find action on this for 2:1? i think it'd be massively +EV for anyone betting against me, but hopefully also +EV for myself since it would motivate me to play

Doubt you'd get much action since most of the people who would bet this think 50K hands is a week's worth, not a month. gl with getting them in though.

blankoblanco · Jan 26, 2009

well a) given my history, i'm obviously not them. i'd encourage anyone who didn't believe me not to bet. it's probably like free money, but i know even if i lose the bet i will probably make more $ for the month than i would have otherwise just from actually playing way more

b) uh 50k is a week's worth to like nobody on this board, and to very few people period. and almost all of the people who ever have 100k+ months play at least 12 tables

I wasn't referring to this board.

blankoblanco · Jan 26, 2009

oh, well i'd prob only be doing any bets with CCers, not 2+2ers or whatever. a lot of people here know how lazy i am and how i hardly ever play

that sounds tuff, what kind of win-rate?

If you're going to buy the pro version of HEM, you might want to consider joining Stox before you do. As a Stox member you can get the Pro version of HEM for $45. Since the Stox monthly cost is $28, you save $7 over just buying HEM straight out and you get to check out Stox for a month. If you have 5K Full Tilt points you can join Stox with those and then buy HEM for $45.

Why didn't you spam this 2 weeks ago when I bought HEM straight up ?

You dirty slag.

c9h13no3 · Jan 26, 2009

~4 big blinds/100 or something easy I suppose. You play Full Ring?

I will defenatly do this then.
Thanks for the info

blankoblanco · Jan 26, 2009

yeah. and heh idk about 4 bb/100 being easy at 200NL FR

i'm really not too into the idea of there being a win rate clause, at least anything beyond like 1bb, because i don't want to actually somehow reach the hands goal but run like crap/play bad from the volume all month and already want to kill everything, then have to turn around and pay people off on bets i lost.

it's cool if nobody wants to bet, just figured i'd mention it, i could just use the motivation and given my history and how i have no experience with long sessions whatsoever, id have to be a pretty big longshot. figured it could be +EV for all parties involved, as those are my favorite types of prop bets

oh chuck as for the N64 dont forget the zelda games

and my personal favorite game for that system was star fox

lol I purposely didn't buy any zelda games. I'm the type of person who can't play a game without beating like EVERYTHING in the game, so I opted out of buying the adventure games with all the heart pieces and special weapons and shit so it wouldn't cut into my poker time

KingCurtis · Jan 26, 2009

Pretty happy about being + 4 BIs over 500 hands

If only you'd thought to post that you were getting ready to buy it, I would have because it really is a no-brainer even if you don't use Stox and just cancel it immediately.

Sorry.

rough, cod for the PC?

vanquish · Jan 26, 2009

man i was really trying to roll myself for like 100nl+ in the warm up but only ended up shipping like $600 so f that. time to hit the books

blankoblanco · Jan 26, 2009

whatchu gonna do with the monies then?

switch0723 · Jan 26, 2009

yo chuck, Battle Toads is the most unbelievable must have game ever, i think its on the snes, might be nes though

Also, still on the old skool games, anyone know if you can download a ps1 emulator + FF7 from the interwebs?

also combu, i'd be interested on laying a bet, but since i suck hard at odds, just need to clarify, by 2:1 does that mean if i bet 200 and you fail, i win 400 profit, or 100 profit?

blankoblanco · Jan 26, 2009

id like odds in my favor since i'm definitely a dog and haven't played close to this volume before. also i guess i should add, i've never played more than 6 tables but im gonna practice 9-tabling in the next few days

basically i suck. help me not suck!

edit: actually i 9-tabled DoN sngs briefly, but i've never 9-tabled cash

switch0723 · Jan 26, 2009

meh, id rather 1:1 then tbh, but i'd be willing to bet $200 on 60k hands (slightly more than 2k a day) and showing a profit at the end at 1:1

blankoblanco · Jan 26, 2009

well i'm thinking FR averages like 70 hands an hour. so that's just over 600 hands an hour for every hour i 9-table, which would work out to almost 25 hours a week. which is a sick amount for me considering i've never played 10 hours a week + i'm in school (3 classes though, might drop 1)

and that's if i'm 9-tabling at all times, and doesn't even factor in time trying to get on tables and switching tables

i guess i'm a fag but that's pretty hardcore to me. all these dudes who grind out 100k months are usually pros who play 12-16 tables and sometimes more, and a lot of them are 6max players which gets like 1.5x the hands per hour as FR

switch0723 · Jan 26, 2009

25 hours a week though is still < 4 hours a day though, and weekends you can play like 8 hours or something on sat and sun, the bet needs to be remotely challenging, anything less is really really easy to achieve if you try and i would just be spewing money by bettig against it, 60k at 1:1 though i like

ChuckTs · Jan 26, 2009

Yeah I'll probably nab battletoads too. That was for the nes.

And yes you can get ps1 emulators: http://letmegooglethatforyou.com/?q=ps1+emulator

FF7 was undoubtedly like the best game ever imo.

switch0723 · Jan 26, 2009

If you ever complete the speedbike level on toads aswell, you have to tell me your secrets, I couldnt beat it as a kid and i havn't been able to beat it the past year that i've had the firefox nes emulator thingy

<3 for the link, we are so cool ldo

wtf, who has ever grinded cash for 8 hours? that's really fking hard to do iyam. dammit nobody understands how lazy i am. i'm just a motivation-starved dude tryin' to give away monies imo

i'll think about it yo
