Poker Prop bet - anybody up for this
« on: May 21, 2013, 12:49:37 PM »
HI Guy"s

Currently trying to get my motivation back to play poker so I came up with this idea from reading Asa"s blog. It ties in with my current attempts to gain a good understanding of the 180 man turbo"s on Pokerstars.

Month of June prop bet on Pokerstars. The idea is to make the most money from playing exclusively the $2.50 this gives motivation to both try and win and put in good volume.

Mainly for bragging rights but I was thinking $10 per man. 50% goes to winner and 50% to a charity of the winners choice or maybe Carl"s just giving page? I will maintain a leader board using Sharkscope so that everybody knows where they are and what they need to do to win.

If you are up for it them please post your Pokerstars userid in the thread. There does not need to be a huge number of us to do this as I see it but reckon it would make for a good thread. Everybody could update the thread with how they are doing and I would do a leaderboard update once a week. We go my Sharkscope for the leaderboard. To play you will need to unlock results sites for Pokerstars.

Must be fun for a month?

My Pokerstars ID is (obviously - see sig) 33teetwo33

Rules


1) Min of 10 games played to be able to win, anybody who fails to complete 10 games will automatically lose.

2) All players entering agree to send $10 to the winner. The winner will then donate half of this to a charity of their choice.  *

3) Sharkscope will be used to Determine profit. All players need to make their stats visible on Sharkscope+

* This is done entirely on trust I would not expect any issues with the people entering this sending the $10 to the winner but if somebody was to fail to do so nothing can really be done.

+ Sharkscope is the most accurate method available. It is not 100% though and does sometimes miss tournaments. The leaderboard will be produced based on what Sharkscope says and not individual trackers, OPR or any other method of determing results.

Could be fun,

would there be a min/max amount of games to try and keep it fair or would it be just as many as you can squeeze in within a month?

Min 10 games? Just to stop somebody playing one winning and stopping for the month :-)

I don"t think there should be a max playing more games is not always an advantage to be honest.

Just thinking out loud,

We could agree an opening BR for every one to start on, almost like a buy in say $50 + $10.

You must stake atleast 50% of this minimum ( 10 games )

If you bust your out, but can buy back in for $50 + $10 ( build the pot + more for charity )

Whoever has the highest BR left the end of June wins

What you think?

I would keep it as simple as possible. Most profit wins with a min of 10 games.

Rod - were you definitely thinking just $2.50 180 turbos? No reg speed, hypers etc?

Would like to get involved in this - but you"re not suggesting they are the only games you"re gonna play all month? We just filter out the other games to create the results for the leaderboard?
