    Correct, much harder....You're not waiting at all, you're actually playing now & getting pummeled. DS wouldn't be waiting if he joined on 1/1/14, he would be getting crushed as well.

    I'm not complaining about +200, I would bet more if allowed. For you to offer +200 when trailing by 1,800+? Let's just say math is obviously not you strong suit.

    Lol...so your final answer is that posting 2 additional screenshots is too difficult for you, otherwise you'd happily take DS' points? Those are some amazing powers of self-deception you've got bobby

    I know you're not complaining, and again, your assessment of the situation validates the odds

    My final answer concerning DS is he had multiple chances to join in 2014 but refused, so now he can patiently wait until 2015.

    To DS credit, he's not as dumb as he looks. Unlike Triple, he saved himself 2,500 by not joining 2014. It's only going to cost Triple 29k for participating.

    ...and the only way to interpret this is that you don't truly believe you'll beat DS, so you'd like to stall. Nothing wrong with that and plenty of evidence to support it, but all these BS excuses of yours make you look ridiculous.

    Only way this contest costs be anything is if the deck keeps running you over as it has this week

    Again, to be clear: he didn't turn down any invite for a heads-up contest...you insisted he play in an existing format with other players (me), and while he was happy to spot you the same lead, he had no desire to play against others as he had nothing to prove to them. He opened the floor to you for a contest as long as you wanted, in the format you wanted, at the stakes you wanted, spotting you a lead, and you STILL refused to play him. Those aren't the actions of someone who believes he has even a small chance of winning

    As for your 3k lead, it's only a result of DS not caring about the dailies...during the 2 month time period he had a reason to care, he smoked you quite badly despite running terribly; no reason to think a 12 month contest wouldn't be the same if not a bigger slaughter

    Your reading comprehension is just terrible, as all of this stuff has been said at least a dozen times before. Let's see what the general public thinks shall we? http://www.sportsbookreview.com/forum/poker/2873...uckign-ds.html

    For the sake of argument, let's say that the two most of the likely reasons nobody's betting you are 1) they saw you get curb stomped by DS despite having a short-term lead, and 9,627,251) people are concerned about my ability to repay (numbered in no particular order you'd understand). I think it's pretty obvious which is more probable, but let's test your theory: anyone who falls under the category bobby describes (wants to bet him to win, but is worried about me paying) go ahead and post here to let us know. Until then, we'll just have to assume it's the other reason

    The comical thing is that you can't see why +200 is a somewhat accurate line (more than a little low actually)...but then again, if you were capable of understanding it, the true odds might not be so high
    Hrm, nobody has checked in to support bobby's excuse for why nobody wants to bet on him here...how strange

    I'm sure other savvy investors like myself would love to know if you're still honoring this +200 line, despite your current 2,400+ deficit. Although I highly doubt you'll accept any more action from me, or any other investor with a clue. Losing 29k is probably enough punishment, considering your bankroll.

    I pride myself on being a fair guy, so I'll offer you a buyout: If you take an 18k loan from your buddy DS this weekend & ship me 25k by 10am this Monday (5/12), you can end this nightmare & save yourself 4k in the process.

    I can track it myself once the weekly WPC standings come out, but I have no idea what the total is now.

    For us, our pt counts can easily be tracked here: http://www.sportsbookreview.com/poker/

    But for TripleD, it's not as easy. I have him currently at 6,270 unofficially, but 99.9% accurate. Triple posted a total of 5,670 back on May 1st, refer to post #49 in this thread. From there you can track his badges & do the math, to double check my count.

    The smart play for you is to hedge out. Bet at least 300 on me at +200 odds with Triple. This way you'll come out ahead, instead of losing 500 to me. I strongly suggest Beerdog to do the same, don't want to see you guys lose pts.

    My my, I step away for a few days, bobby runs like the sun and gets a little lippy...will make for some good moments in a few months no doubt!

    My current total is indeed 6,270, impressed you can keep track of 1 weeks worth of results bobby! However, it looks like you're reading just a little too much into your abilities, as always...the fact that the impossible happened (you taking a 1st place) should be enough to tell you exactly how hot you're running!

    Kind of you to offer a buyout (and we appreciate you demonstrating once again your terrible grasp of the math involved); I'm afraid I can't return the favor and offer you a buyout, as it was a fair bit of work getting you to wager and lose as much as you have. Funny how all the smart money and board opinion seems to be against you on this one...guess we'll have to wait and see what happens eh?

    Yes, very kind of me. 7 months from now, you'll realize how foolish you were not taking advantage of my generosity. Understandable though, I would be shy asking DS for an 18k loan as well.

    My math skills are strong, 25k buyout offer would have saved you approx 4k. Math is obviously not your strong suit. This is quite evident when you offer +200 odds on Waves, while you're facing a 2,400+ deficit.

    28,890 - 25k buyout = 3,890 savings

    Is 3rd grade math beyond your comprehension?

    No luck necessary, as skill prevails over a 12 month time span.

    Your math is completely off, both in assuming a buyout is warranted in the situation (a mediocre player winning slightly above his average) and with the amount of buyout. If your lead was twice what it is, your offer would still be ridiculous...a lot can happen in 7 months, and when the leader in question is you, it's pretty damn likely to happen

    Skill will tend to prevail in the longer term, which is why I wish you good luck...you're going to need more and more of it to keep this entertaining

    Mediocre players such as yourself, will never be on the top 15 leaderboard: http://www.sportsbookreview.com/poker/

    You're on pace to lose by 4,186, so my generous buyout offer was more than warranted. To put my lead in its proper perspective, you could take 1st the next 4 days & still be losing. One 1st is highly unlikely for you, so four in a row is impossible.

    You can compare my position & playing style to a great football defense, who finds themselves up 24-0 at halftime. While the game is technically not over, the lead is surely insurmountable.

    How strange that we only hear from you about the virtues of being on the leaderboard for the brief periods of time you manage to stay on it....the rest of the time you're oddly silent on the matter

    Your pacing and football analyses are just plain dumb, but nobody expects you to understand that...so by all means carry on for as long as you can. It will make it much harder for you to backtrack next year...maybe you'll claim that only a 60 month contest means anything and insist we wait until 2020 to start one?

    Coming from someone who has never made this board & never will. Obviously if you don't get off to a hot start, you won't be on the board in early months. However, the cream always rises to the top.

    Points now are worth more than points 7 months from now

    Even if time value didn't exist, Bobby's buyout offer is a complete ripoff

    He wants triple to pay 25k now rather than 28890 later

    So bobby thinks he has over an 86% chance of winning?

    No not even he could believe that, which means he didn't make a fair offer

    The only part I disagree is the bolded...bobby has shown an almost-superhuman ability to believe things despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary, and I think he actually does believe most of the things he claims...kinda sad, but you know what they say about fools and their money

    Triple is correct for once...I actually believe my chances are greater than 86%, otherwise I wouldn't have bet 22K on myself to win.

    So since your over 86% confident in your win here you should have no problem setting up a heads up wager with me and we can go ahead and start. I already told you on the off chance that small chance of Triple D winning comes up we can work something out.

    So how long do you want this contest to last, 12 months from now, rest of year, 6 months. If your that worried about sample size I already stated we could include the last 40 I mopped you around with and I would even set the results back to zero.

    Come on bobbo, whats the excuse now?
