WVU...poker challenge questions

WVU

I read about your challenge, I have a few questions for you. what is the max bet ? who do we post up the money to ? does it matter if it is full tilt or pokerstars ? does it matter what limit I play at ? can it fluctuate ?

Thanks for the time

What is the challenge?

WVU · Nov 14, 2007

100 to win 1000.

Tilt, Pokerstars, or Bodog. $30 or higher sit and gos 6,9, or 10 seaters. Cash in 50+ out of 100 to win

If you really want to do this start a thread and post the table before playing. Keep your record updated.

any chance you'll take $500 ? I'll send you the 500 first and let you hold it

I really want to keep this friendly. The incentive to scam increases dramatically with a big payout. I will go 200 to win 2000, but you are welcome to do it as many times as you want

fair enough.. i will probably start this up this weekend.. ill make sure to make a thread

This seems near impossible to track.

Any chance you give less odds to a lower sample size?

WVU · Nov 14, 2007

Good Luck. I hope you don't mind some friendly Jabs at your skills now and then. Be warned that your play will be somewhat public. That is the toughest part about doing this.

I hope you win

It was very easy to track, because the tables are announced beforehand. Check the link.

thats fair, I know its highly unlikely.. but thats what makes it exciting.. I love a challenge

shdw01 · Nov 14, 2007

WVU, you can look up my stats (shdw01 on pokerstars, nut_floppers on ftp)....i suck....is there any way we can have a go at this and:

1)lower the %? 40% maybe

2) lower the $ value ($11 or $22)? The $30's is too expensive for lifetime losers like me

this looks fun, but If i have a go at 50% and $30, I will donate money to you and have a rough time funding 100 tourneys...lol

Did anyone at 2+2 end up taking you up on this offer WVU?

Lowering the % wouldn't make it a challenge. You can do $22 tables if you want.

yes, but they locked that thread so 2 guys did it off forum. I had messages from like 40 different people wanting to try. One guy hit 44 and the other guy quit after sitting at about 25% half way through. They both paid upfront.

By the way, I've come to the conclusion that poker players, especially tourney players, are the worst gamblers in the world.........slightly above roulette players.

what about the horses ppl? I always kept them in regards to the most degenerate (only because I hardly ever play horses, makes me feel better about myself....but I love roulette and poker tourneys...lol)
