    So with the above facts in mind, it's quite easy to see Tripe is the only one ducking challenges.
    Oops, that whole lack of reading ability thing getting in your way again. Let's refresh your memory shall we?

    ...and as predicted, all we hear out of you is crickets. Even with a return to the 12-place-payout structure and the retirement of real poker payout structures, you seem wise to the fact you can't mincash your way past anyone. Now if only your mouth would catch up with where your fear has led you

    News flash Tripe, the 12 place structure was just announced today.

    I'll bet your remaining 3k on World Cup results, if you want.

    As always, your grasp of the incredibly obvious continues to amaze But only 3k? All the time you've wasted repeating yourself about how you own last year (not to mention "losing on purpose" to DS, as you claim) and you only want to bet 3k?? I guess that makes about as much sense as anything you do round here, which is to say, little to none

    Make it 15k minimum to make this worth the time and effort to try to play most days. Or, if you prefer, just roll out your standard excuses about "bankroll management" (ya know, the kind that you didn't ever use except when trying to duck people) or me not having the points at the moment (ya know, completely ignoring how many people would happily lend them to me)....I'm sure you'll continue to dazzle us with your unimaginative, irrational, self-contradicting excuses...it's what you do

    As usual, Tripe likes to be irresponsible by betting with points he doesn't have. According to your points history, it doesn't appear you paid Yisman back the 26k he bailed you out from our last wager. It would be irresponsible of me to accept a 15k bet, when A) you don't have it & B) you still owe Yis 26k.

    Perhaps if you had my management skills, you wouldn't find yourself pts broke. 3k bet is my offer, I don't feel comfortable taking more pts you can comfortably afford to give.

    Oh look, not even a new excuse So let's recap: you're extremely confident you'll beat me, had no problem taking 29k from me last year...but because these points seem to be the majority of your "retirement" income (not counting low-income subsidies), you assume that your inability to afford things means I can't as well? When you offered me a 29k wager at the beginning of the year, what was different? You should really put some effort into these excuses of yours bobbo, the old ones still don't make any sense

    Looks like you're still not able to read...I know you don't seem to have a problem making yourself look foolish here (maybe you just want the attention like CS4? who knows), but acknowledging a reading disability would probably let us be more patient with you. However, you'd need to understand your limitations, and accept that people without disabilities can comprehend these things, and you should listen to them when they try to show you how to understand the words.

    Summarizing: you're either assuming you know what I can afford (which you don't, as you're clearly not even able to understand my clearly visible points history) or (most likely) you're simply making another excuse to avoid losing too much.

    15k minimum is my offer, will go as high as 30k....I'm not unemployed like you, and I have higher aspirations in life than qualifying for low-income subsidies...3k is simply not worth putting an effort in to try to play often. Obtaining the points isn't a problem, no matter how much you pretend it is. If you're scared, just say so and I'll stop bugging you about it; I understand your need to have a "high score" to feel like a winner and will happily let you do so in silence, so long as you don't try to claim that you're better than someone despite all available evidence to the contrary.

    Last years challenge already proved I'm better than you. Any amount of pts I offer to bet should be sufficient, as it shouldn't be about pts you don't have. It's should be about pride & proving you're the better player, the amount we wager should be irrelevant.

    When you're ready to conduct yourself responsibly by paying your own poker debts without soliciting loans, then you be sure to let me know Tripe. Who would bail you out for the next 30k I take you for, Yisman again?

    I assume you're referring to the challenge you beat me in, and not the numerous times I and others proved you wrong and took your points? So by the same token, I guess DS proved he's better than you last year too huh? Talk about selective memory

    Of course I don't play for just the points; I have an income (luckily for you, someone has to subsidize your decision to remain unemployed) and don't need the points. Likewise, I don't need to prove you're the worse player; you've done that for me over the past year and some change, almost every time you open your mouth to comment on something poker-related. However, I'm not going to prioritize playing these things for 3.5 months for $100. $500 isn't worth the time by itself, but it's closer when combined with the enjoyment from playing, points won from the tourneys themselves, and the impact to your "high score".

    You've never understood that borrowing points isn't irresponsible, which is pretty ironic for a guy who is straight up taking other people's money via low-income subsidies. Internet users like me pay most of your internet costs and you're going to lecture me on paying my own debts?

    You had no qualms about raising our wager last year even when I didn't have the points in my balance. You seem incapable of reading point histories, basic sentences or realizing that I have more owed to me than your point balance plus all of your stiffed debt combined...but even if you knew, I doubt it would matter; you're simply grasping at straws to try to weasel out of putting your points where your mouth is. If you accept the wager, I'll have the points for it, simple as that. I get this is just you trying to come up with an excuse, but even you should know that nobody's buying it.

    Congrats on finally not ducking DS as well, even if it was for such a tiny amount that contradicts your repeated claims that you let him win

    Letting DS win to set you up for a 29k loss, only further demonstrates my brilliance. You can't deny I beat you soundly last year, as it's a fact. Yet you try to claim to be a better player, this only proves your ignorance.

    When I raised the stakes last year, you obviously didn't owe Yisman 26k. And I don't care about all your outstanding loans you will ultimately get stiffed on. Some people learn from past mistakes, sadly you're not one of them.

    Fact is I currently have 9,500 in pending challenges, which is 9,500 more than you. So I'm fine whether you want to agree on my bet amount or not. I have management skills & intelligent reasons for offering the bet amounts I do, you can either accept or decline.

    Your jealousy is quite evident Tripe. I'm intelligent enough to obtain internet for $10/month, while you continue to get ripped off. Thanks for paying my internet pal.

    I'm a better player for objective reasons the same reason many, many others are, regardless of their performance on SBR poker: you simply don't understand basic poker concepts, and confuse your ability to tediously mincash with poker skills. This isn't something subject to debate or verification by contests, it is an uncontested fact. As I'm sure we've all experienced, people claiming to have lost on purpose are almost always lying; in your case, there's simply no evidence to support the claim. If I'd claim I lost on purpose for whatever reason, would even you take it at face value? Yet you expect us to believe you ran your mouth and then lost on purpose, followed by by ducking DS' challenges for a year? GTFO

    News flash: I still don't owe yisman 29k. This is obvious to anyone capable of reading, a group you seem determined to prove you don't belong in. Your opinion on likelihood of payback is pretty worthless, considering your failure to grasp the basic tenets of lending.

    I know you have reasons for declining bets; you don't want to lose too many points when you're likely to lose. I don't blame you for that, especially considering your performance has been terrible in all of your challenges so far, and will likely continue to only be slightly less terrible even after the resuming of participation awards. Your "management" excuse doesn't hold any water, as we've seen you make the claim and then turn around and accept a wager immediately afterwards...bankroll management is yet another term you apparently don't understand, along with the fact that most of us don't consider points to be any significant part of our bankroll.

    Qualifying for the low-income internet you do doesn't require intelligence; anyone of us can do it by simply giving up our incomes. Being willing to leach off society isn't widely considered "intelligent"; you've been recognized as a charity case who can't make it on his own and needs other people to help him out. An intelligent person would certainly know better than to claim to be financially better off than others when he's admitted to his own poverty...yet another group we can't put you in it seems

    Keep ducking bobbo and keep polishing your high score like it means something, or somehow makes up for your inability to grasp poker concepts

    Everyone knows the only welcher is you, as it's well documented. Why would I welch 1k with the 63k balance I have? Face it Donkey, you're just a pussy who was scared to post up when facing a 3:1 chip deficit. Costing you 1k jackass.
