    I'd take more of that if you're willing to offer it.

    If Stash doesn't take his 100 you can have it Yis.

    Anyone want to bet against my 100 points at +275 that I end up with more points than the lowest scoring US player?

    I'm about 460 behind right now, and not in the top 20 of USA players.

    I'll take the last 100 of the other bet and give you +275 here if you want. Let me know.

    just so I am clear its even odds 100 for 100 on whether the 10th place spot will be 3300 or higher right? for usa.

    If I am getting 3300 and + then YES I will take the bet.. ty yis

    imo no way this stays under 4k.. this usa group is brutal

    yes it's even odds. Opti has under 3300.

    I think it'll be under 4k, but around 3600-3800. It'd be tough for it to stay under the set number.

    That's right. So we are on for 100 instead of with Yisman.

    We'll see. It is a low line, but I'm still pretty confident. Some people will disappear, some won't have time to play every week, some will be banned, and some may not be pro. The number will hardly change in the final weeks. That's what happened with the top 150 list... 19 cashes was the cut off for ages before the end.

    You should really be generous and give me 3400 considering the overwhelming opinion that I'm wrong.

    I'll probably regret not taking you on later. But think I had better wait until after the next update to get any deeper in this.

    Got myself into almost 1000 risk on side bets with people already. Don't think I had better get that above the minimum poker team prize.

    We would also like to say that we feel we have been already generous because your initial number was 3,070.

    We? The royal one?

    3070 was just me running my mouth, not a bet number. But 3300 should be plenty anyway.

    gotta think the pace dips significantly in the coming weeks, but the last week or 2 things will happen like: 1. people in other parts of the world being assured a spot won't register 2. nfl and ncaafb being over, slow time of year for sbr 3. only those competing for a spot will still be around every day to play

    As you say Rudy, I'm kinda banking on less than 10 US players actually competing full on for the entire 11 weeks. Just a 270 point rise last week gave me great hope. Just have fingers crossed it will be less than that this week, and keep dropping.


    @Stash.. thanks mate. All heart you guys.

    first question was someone I've never heard of. Guessed right. Boxing/wrestler dude.

    2nd was a tough tennis one which I got.

    3rd was a trick question and I should've known. It asked about Sebastian Janikowski and the answer was zero because dude was injured.

    8 AM is still the tournament to play, but I simply can't do it if it means I have to be up before 8. Really wish they'd change it.


    19th/40 in the midnight.

    Got lucky early on with AJ beating A9, putting me at like 4300, but it got brutal after that. I don't remember a single hand I was in until showdown until my final hand. AJ would turn out to be my best hand dealt the whole way. After that, it was either A9, KJ, or 33, whichever you'd prefer. I dropped all the way down to 1600 and change, thanks to my folding garbage preflop, or calling with decent hands and having someone promptly all-in with 2-3K chips (this happened a lot, and everyone kept folding to the all-ins), or the few times I saw the flop, my cards never hit.

    Finally with blinds 150/300, coming for me shortly, and increasing shortly, I called with A7, and someone raised to 1200. I figured I had no choice but to hope to get lucky heads up. He had JJ. Done.

    Need another cash soon, but the midnight is close to full each night these days.

    25/41

    ronpaul pushed all in 4k+ chips with 99. I called with AK and like 3800.

    QJ on flop. Q on turn, 2 on river.

    Bad shove by him I think.

    Oh well.
