PMJackson21 0 Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 The NL tournies have such huge fields and not great structures, normal variance would make it really hard to win this bet.You mean for DN/FCP contingent to win the bet? If so, agreed.I'm sure if he came on here and had made the same post, with an added 'NL' only qualification, he probably could have still gotten action from some. Link to post Share on other sites

KevinFKHS 0 Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 Man-ee-faces,May I ask why the original bet was for $9,000 ? That just seems like such a random number to me. I would think that a $5,000 or $10,000 bet would have been more "normal." Is it the equivalent of a certain number of euros ?Yeah 9,000$ at the current exchange rate should be the equivalent of 50€...that's probably why he picked it sw? Link to post Share on other sites

Is it the equivalent of a certain number of euros ?Hi there :)I said $9000 because I have $109k at Stars in my account, so I thought loosing $9k means $100k left. I love straight numbers When I saw that there are people who want to take this bet I raised it up because $9k looks kinda weird ^^ Link to post Share on other sites

He will set up the contract, mail it to me and afterwards we will transfer the money. Since Hoosier and me are the main protagonists in this bet we decide what we do and when we do it You can send a PM to Hoosier with your bets, he will take care of it Link to post Share on other sites

Naismith 0 Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 A contract is nearly finished and the 1000r will be exempt from the bet.I personally believe that without this event, the terms should be modified a bit and I sent that to Hoosier, but I trust his judgment in this matter and will follow through on my bet of 4k with what he deems a fair deal.

It is posted in a public forum. You can take screenshots and get histories of transfers. You can go a step further and post in multiple forums such as 2+2, pokerhaus, P5's, etc... just so that the terms are out there on multiple sites. Include whatever personal info you want including your Stars name. And get it done. The agreed upon escrow is a well known professional.All of the $1k plus people responding in this thread are also members of multiple poker communities in very high standing.

We said that event 5 doesnt count and we said that YESTERDAY! It was Hoosiers idea to set up a contract and doing it tomorrow, not mine!!

Even top 6 would be fair I think. Link to post Share on other sites
