    Since you think I'll be paying off Triple, how about betting on it? I've accepted bets from other posters already, will accept from you or anyone else as well.

    Of course you won't, as you're all talk & no action.

    Sure ill bet

    Back up what you said

    You said you have better than
    an 86% chance of beating triple

    I'll settle for 80% which is -400 for you

    If you decline you're obviously all talk and no action

    Back up what you said

    Correct, glad to see you're finally starting to grasp what the entire forum has been trying to tell you! As for the rest, we'll just chalk it up to your well-demonstrated lack of understanding about the game

    Why would I entertain -400, when Triple has me at +200? In that case, I would just bet more with Triple, if he allows more than the 20k I currently invested. I also have 1k bets at EV odds, with both Beerdog & Gummo.

    You were whining about triple not having enough to pay you

    I have more than enough

    I just wanted to see if you would actually back up what you said. I guess the answer is no. You like to talk big that's all.

    Honor the +200 odds Triple posted, or are you trying to say Triple is uneducated for making me a +200 dog? If so, I can't argue that point.

    The -400 Robber's asking for are probably closer to the true odds...I've said from the beginning that the odds I was offering on you to win were much lower payout than they should be, and apparently everyone except you seems to agree that it's not worth betting even at +200

    Bobby why should I care what triple posted? That's his business, not mine.

    You were running your mouth saying you have over an 86% chance of winning and that you were being generous by offering that buyout

    That implies you think you're 90% or better

    Back it up or shut up. Your choice. I generously was willing to bet you at 80% even though you claim you're much higher

    You're contradicting yourself. You say -400 is closer to true odds. Yet you offered +180 & +200 & saying that these odds are even too low. So which one is it? Why do you feel he need to rip me off at +200, when according to you odds should be even higher?

    Because the +200 Triple offered is nowhere near the -400 you're offering. In addition, I already invested 22k. So obviously one of you guys are offering chit odds. Why would I bet -400 with you, when I can bet +200 or possibly higher with Triple?

    -400 on me to win is closer to the correct odds for sure, and as I mentioned above and numerous times, my offering +200 is a lower payout than actual odds would require. Are you struggling with the "how odds work" thing or just reading comprehension in general?

    If you felt ripped off, you were always welcome not to bet...perhaps you've noticed that nobody has even offered odds on the matchup. The same question could be applied to you: if you thought you were such a lock, why did you only offer Gummo and BeerDog even odds?

    An intelligent answer would be that you make +EV bets whenever you can, and take the next best bet if you've exhausted your opportunities elsewhere. But let's be real here, your confidence only comes from you having what you consider to be an insurmountable lead; when it comes to a contest with DS, even when he offers to spot you a 4 figure lead you're too scared to take him up on it. This will probably make for some very interesting reading in 6 and a half months

    I assumed you came to your senses & the -400 was referring to me as the favorite. Since you can't possibly be ignorant enough to still think you're a -400 favorite, while facing an approx. 2,700 deficit.

    Even odds because Gummo & Beerdog solicited me, I didn't solicit them.

    Because you said triple wont be able to pay you

    That he doesn't have enough pts

    Not sure you do either

    As for 'chit odds' every time you've made an offer in the pts forum you're trying to rip someone off which is why your offers are rarely accepted

    NASCAR, NHL, offering to let triple buy out at 86% ( even if he was 100% going to lose he'd be better off waiting rather than doing the buyout)

    You have some nerve criticizing someone else's odds

    So it's reading comprehension you're struggling with then...good to know, and yeah, -400 is probably pretty close at this point. Hard to say though; as with most overwhelming favorites, it's hard to properly factor the small chance of luck (you being able to run hot enough long enough to win) into the odds. +200 was good enough to get your points though

    Trip won't be able to pay on his own, but stated he'll take a loan to pay off the difference. As for my pts, I have another 12k tied up in hedge fund.

    As for chit odds...the few times I've made offers, odds have been more than fair & better price than SBR Book.

    "If Trip was 100% going to lose he'd be better off waiting than doing buyout," just another ignorant statement from you. He would have saved approx 4k, my next buyout offer won't be as generous.

    Everyone has a right to criticize odds, taking their business elsewhere for a better price.

    Wrong again... My reading comprehension is as solid as my math skills, which you obviously lack. When you ignorantly believe you're a -400 fave while facing a 2,700 deficit.

    In comparison, I'm like the Philadelphia Eagles with a 27-0 lead over your Oakland Raiders at halftime. Yet Trip thinks his Oakland Raiders are -400 to win the game.

    Bobby must be mentally retarded

    I tried explaining to him the time value of pts and money and he still doesn't get it

    Bobby's buyout offers are not even close to fairly priced and every time he makes an offer in the pts forum he's blatantly trying to rip others off which is why he doesn't get action

    Considering the lead & amount of time left, buyout offer was fair in my humble opinion.

    The few offers made in pts forum were better than SBR book odds, so how is that a blatant rip off? How about posting the thread links in question to support your false allegation?

    We're completely in agreement on that one bobbo...I'm sure robber also agrees that your math skills and reading comprehension are at similar levels. Given your analogy, I'm comfortable saying you're equally gifted at analogies and the general rules of football as well

    I'm most likely able to pay you in the unlikely event I lose our contest; as stated before, I have more than enough points coming in from outstanding loans.

    Lol you're a moron

    You know no one took any of your recent offers

    You posted stuff barely better than the sbr book and WORSE than could be had at 5 dimes and pinnacle

    It's all there for anyone to see

    Your offers are indefensible and blatant attempts to rip people off

    Even if the store didn't have any inflation I could easily win 4k between now and the end of the year

    Time value of money. Give me 10k now rather than 12k in a year

    You're right, your reading comprehension is just as terrible as your laughable math skills.

    So according to you, it's in Trip's best interest to lose 29k to me instead of the 25k I generously offered via buyout. Here's some 3rd grade math, maybe you missed class that day: 29 > 25, 25 < 29

    I have tried explaining it to you twice now

    Have you ever heard of inflation?

    Never mind, you can't read or do basic math. That explains why you suck at poker. You can't read poker books or attempt to calculate pot odds

    We're not talking about a 7 month loan with measly 10% interest. Inflation has absolutely nothing to do with saving Triple 4k.

    Or are you trying to say Triple will make 4k interest on that 25k from now until years end? Perhaps, if he actually had 25k & was a savvy hedge fund investor like myself. Unfortunately Trip has approx. 4,500 & will not make 4k interest on loans from now until years end.

    Not to mention, my generous buyout offer has nothing to do with a non poker player like yourself. Trip either declines or accepts buyout offers, makes no difference to me. Just trying to save the poor guy 4k.

    Yes you did

    Congrats on playing every day

    I play poker sometimes and have a better ROI than you. Both facts.

    Your playing every tournament won't save you in the end. I'll enjoy watching you drop, you egomaniac .

    And once again, you ignored what I said about the time value of money because you are incapable of comprehending it.
