By 'straight up' I meant 1:1 odds. But we could negotiate. How much are you considering wagering?

[/ QUOTE ]

Say a friendly $100? I was kinda lookin for 2:1 though

I guess I'll put out an open offer:

My $100 against anyone's $200, if it happens I win

If you are a respected poster (TWP included) I transfer $100 straight away

[/ QUOTE ]

I got 200 against it happening. Respond and we're on.

/edit timeframe: done by the end of 2005.

I've realised we need a timeframe. Otherwise how will it ever be shown that it is not happening. It could always happen later. So here's my offer. I will give you 1.5:1 for $100. So if you win, you take $150. If I win, I take $100. For you to win, they have to come to a specific agreement by October 1, 2005 about how it will happen, and then it has to actually happen. For me to win, October 1, 2005 must pass without any specific agreement being in place. What say you?

Well, a timeframe isn't too important I reckon, because I can transfer to you now

And nothing happens unless they all 4 meet to play a freezout. That way I can have a year or so, how's that sound?

edit: As in you hold my $100, but if it happens, you transfer back $250: my original $100 plus your $150

Not to clutter up the thread, but just for the record and in case anyone else is interested in this deal, your conditions were accepted. 1.5:1 and you have one year while I hold your money. PM me if you ever find out that you won.

you misunderstood what i said... i wasnt doubting your integriy. im saying i would bet against it happening as well, but for me to ask for 1:1 straight odds isnt fair for the opposing party. i would give odds on that bet. i would not bet against you because i want to be on your side of the bet.

I have no problem with you experimenting in your game which you seem to be beating anyway, I just think you would definitely beat it for more by raising. I'm all for hypnotizing the other players into playing differently if you can accomplish that.

Why do you continually and knowlingly avoid profitable out of position situations?

[ QUOTE ]
i think youre giving up too much by not raising and reraising AK from the bb in a 4 handed game.

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
Your utter disdain and lack of respect for pre-flop equity is so far against the grain

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
I know you are some kind of folk hero around here and all but this is starting to get ridculous. How can you survive in a 4 handed game at that limit where 1/2 of the hands are from the blinds? This is insane and the medical side of me thinks maybe its time to lay off the dope.

Incredibly fishy... where can I find u online

there is no way he could be a consistant winning player at those limits.

do NOT buy lessons

yeah cmon tommy, i'm trying to understand, but this is a little much.


[/ QUOTE ]

Apparantly there's only one correct way to play out of the big blind in a short handed game - obviously Tommy's wrong or so many people wouldn't correct him.

I'm headed over to the 19+2 forum where there's a heated discussion of how to play a soft 16 against a dealer 5 going on...
