    Downsouth vs bobbywaves head-to-head poker contest

    As developed in http://www.sportsbookreview.com/forum/betpoints/...reward-p2.html, bobby and DS will be going head to head in a poker contest. The rules:

    -Starting today, contestants have until April 11th to play up to 40 daily tournaments.

    -only the first 40 dailies will count towards this contest.

    -the player with the most points earned in the first 40 dailies wins. The loser will promptly pay the winner 2500 points and start a thread congratulating the winner on their superb poker skills. Official point totals are determined by beginning and ending screenshots where provided. As of now, DS' baseline is 650 points; bobby's is 2660.

    -entries to poker tournaments will be determined by reviewing point history for 10 point poker transfers. While I'll do my best to sync these up with actual tournament participation as shown in the lobbies of tourneys, the 10 point transfers will be the official method of tracking number of dailies entered....so don't buy in to a ring game with 10 points on a day when you didn't play a tourney.

    -I will be the contest judge, and will update the results at least weekly. To ensure accuracy, contestants are encouraged to post any cashes in this thread.

    DS, bobby, please check in here to confirm.

    I will also be accepting wagers shortly

    Bobby sneaks past DS in the first tourney of the contest, taking a 100 point lead. Still a ways to go, anyone's contest!

    DS takes down 4th in the 3 PM to bring it within double digits...can bobby answer with another cash? Is DS just hustling everyone who bet on bobby? Is everything rigged? We'll find out in just 35 more tourneys!

    Bobby pulls down an 8th place to put some distance between him and DS, but the gap closed a little bit today....is the tide turning? If bobby just making DS feel like he has a chance? We'll know more in 34 more tourneys!

    On the 6th day of our contest, bobby folds to the bubble, while DS sneaks into the money and whittles away at the lead some more. Could bobby's early lead be a fluke? We'll find out in 34 more tourneys!

    DS pulls down a bobby-cash, and not to be outdone, bobby avoids cashing entirely, allowing DS to creep closer. 33 to go!

    DS gets out-flopped a couple times to miss the cash, and bobby takes full advantage of the situation by reclaiming his previous lead with a devastating mincash. At this rate, if bobby can pull down just 12 more mincashes and DS doesn't cash, bobby can make this a 2-score contest!!

    DS steps up first today and just misses the cash. Never one to miss an opportunity to show off his skills, bobby steps up his game and goes out well before the bubble, maintaining the status quo and his micro lead. almost 25% of the way there, betting to close soon!

    Bobby and DS both missed yesterday, with Bobby giving out free lessons in slow-rolling when drawing almost dead with top pair. Still anyone's contest to win!

    Another blank day for your intrepid contestants...par for the course for bobby, but highly unusual for downsouth. Does he have an epic run coming? Will bobby get run over by the deck again and manage to place higher than 11th? We'll find out in 29 more dailies!

    Strong sauce......What Tripe D conveniently leaves out is the vast majority of my non cashes are due to opposition suckouts, obviously the luck part of game which is out of my control. So I'll continue to get my chips in with the best of it, just a matter of time before winning %'s prevail & tide turns.

    Despite all the bad luck, I still find myself on triathlon leaderboard, ahead of DS, & way ahead of Triple D in our heads up contests. Lucky suckouts are part of the game, otherwise I would have much bigger leads.

    Carseller, enjoy your 2 outer catch last night......I witnessed 1st hand why you're never on a leaderboard.

    I don't have the time or inclination to rail you in every single tourney and see exactly how you're losing, so how the hell would I know except when I'm sitting at your table? More to the point, it doesn't matter...DS has also seen suckouts. Saying you'd be winning more if you didn't lose sometimes isn't much of an excuse...the weakness in your play is independent of suckouts though, and will hopefully be the deciding factor in both contests.

    Fortunately, you have 10 more months where you can keep revising your definition of success (first main leaderboard, then completely-inaccurate-ROI, then contest leaderboard) to protect yourself from the truth: you're not even good enough at poker to be king of 40 cent poker around here

    Having just read through a few posts here, I feel like I get the gist. But correct me if I'm wrong. Is Wavro's contention really that a 10 pt poker tourney that pays out 30-40% of the field with a big overlay somehow indicative of poker skill?

    If so carry on boys. This forum is, after all, all about entertainment.

    You have the gist, nothing to correct here. The "10 pt poker tourney that pays out 30-40% of the field with a big overlay" are the same for everyone.

    Only difference is some suckout more than others, as some players like myself rarely put themselves in a position where a suckout is needed.

    Quite correct, you're ahead of me in all 3 of those areas; 2 of which are meaningless with 0 points attached to them, the other which is a twisted misuse of the concept that exists only in your head...and yet I'm crushing you in overall points won, largely through ring games that require far more skill than folding to a micro cash, which is why I'm sure you avoid them Doesn't take a genius to figure out who's the better player...even someone whose sole claim to fame is being mediocre in microstakes should be able to figure it out
