raptor517 · #1 06-30-2005, 04:40 AM

ok, so for next month, im going to go back to playing a crapload. i was wondering, if anyone would take a bet against me for making the top 5 on the emp tourney masters leaderboard TWICE. in the same month. thats right. two accounts in the top 5. yall may think im insane, thats fine. i dont even know if i can do it. however, im looking for a bet in the neighborhood of 5k-10k. is anyone interested? is this a waste of forum space? i dont really know. post away with thoughts and if u want to take some action on this. i need the 5k+ so i have motivation to actually make myself play that damn much on 2 accounts. holla

Haven't you been top five with one of your accounts already?

If so, I doubt anyone wants to take this bet since you have proven yourself to be crazy enough to play that much already and since you just add four more tables - voila, you have two in the top five.

Didn't gramps say he regularily hits near the top only playing 700ish a month. So you gotta play 1500ish which is about a weeks work for you right? hey why not take your time, like Mr Miyagi used to say, two weeks on, two weeks off, two weeks on...... [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] holla

And I play them in straight sets - I still have trouble with a bunch of games going when shorthanded, so I don't restart them right away. If you 8-table 2 accounts and restart right away, you can hit top-5 for 2 accounts playing <40 hours per week easy.

I would take the bet it would be an angle shoot wanting to know the two account names beforehand, letting empire know having one closed and voila I win the bet.

I suggest being careful on letting your account names out.

GEE RAPTOR: I hate to be a spoilsport, but you are currently #43 & I am #47....The leaderboard mostly "rewards" endurance as opposed to results....So, if you are only 4 spots higher than me amd you play ten(x)times as many $215's as I do, that means that you must book alot of losers [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Watch out....sponger has been climbing the ladder and is at 102 right now!

Maybe if I could get out of the depression that is a 39 buy in downswing and play some, I could actually make it somewhere on the top 50.
