    Flop prop betting.... who's in?

    Tried to get this started a couple times, no dice. Thought maybe a thread explaining it would get some action.

    Here's the way I see it working best, nice and simple.

    1) Only want to run it with 1 other player at the table. Must be pro.

    2) We each pick two cards at random and 1 suit

    3) If your card comes up on the outside 2 cards of the flop, it's x points (arbitrary number, higher or lower depending on what's comfortable with whoever wants to participate). If one of your cards appears in the center of the flop, it's doubled.

    4) If your card in the suit you choose comes up, it's doubled also. So the center card could be 4x

    5) We both keep track, and square away in the forum whenever one person decides to leave.

    Just bring it up if we sit at the same table if interested (cash game only). Thought it might add some fun to the game.

    yeah, it was a nice trial run.

    Upside: just some added gambling, livens things up a bit... I know I get bored sometimes and at least it gives us something to talk about.

    Downside: can't pay attention as much to sporting events on TV or online, couple times BD had to correct me cause I'd miss his or my prop.

    All in all I'd say it went well. I've seen how the pros play props, with stiff jacks and 4 or 5 different flops and other crazy shit.... that would be impossible to follow online.

    Any tweaks to the prop you can think of are welcome. Invitations open to anyone. I'd like to get the 7/2 game going also.... little rougher getting 6 or so to agree to that tho.

    Now I see what you guys were doing. I'd do it if my internet didn't randomly drop a while ago.

    We were doing 2 pts for a regular prop hit. BeerDog was up 38 at one point I think. Then I switched on my own Gummo77 Korean BotTM ;ended up ahead 10
