Barack_Obama 0 Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 I've been playing the micro limits for a long time, grinding it out, I finally got myself 500$ from 1,20 on stars. I cashed out and now I'm gonna put it all on the line.And today I am gonna give it a shot. If I win I go pro, if I lose, I quit for a year.I've put my entire bankroll on five matches, with 180 in odds, that means, if I win, I get 90 000$, and I am gonna play in the EPT satelites, quit my daytime job and go pro.The matches are:Toronto have to beat WashingtonNY Rangers has to beat Tampa BaySome Norwegian hockey team has to win with one goal against another (very unlikely, but sick odds, this is the first match.)Naval has to tie with Sporting BragaPorto has to win with one goal against LeixoesThe first three are hockey, the last two are soccer.WISH ME GOOD LUCK PALS, I WILL NEED IT!!!!First match, the sickest one starts in three hours from now. I will keep you all updated. Link to post Share on other sites
rivergirl 2 Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 so you're going to take your entire poker BR and gamble sports with it to determine if you are gonna be a pro poker player? Shouldn't you say try using your poker br to play poker to determine if you should be a pro poker player. Doesn't make much sense to me but gl Link to post Share on other sites

Shouldn't you say try using your poker br to play poker to determine if you should be a pro poker player. Doesn't make much sense to me but glExactly . You have a TOTAL BR of $500 from Micros and you think that you're ready to TP/MM in Poker if you win a long shot sports bet with said BR?This is a joke, right? Link to post Share on other sites

He will be numb to the fact of the money, having just won a 180:1 longshot.Oh and he will be running like Marion Jones on steroids in the Olympics if he wins this, so why not take a shot and TP/MM.
