A "prop bet" that it will be interesting to follow. "urubu111" on Twoplustwo forums think it can play Pot Limit Omaha 500,000 hands in 45 days at limits 1/2, 2/4 and 3/6 and win at least 1 slot.
The sides he gives are 2 for 1 in his favour. That is, if you bet $ 1000 and that urubu111 loses his bet, you win $ 500.
The terms of the bet are the following:
1 - All hands will be played on PokerStars in 6max and full ring. Approximately 98% of the hands will be played in shorthanded (6max).
2 - Heads up tables are not allowed
3 - Played limits will be $ 1 / $ $2 2 / $ 4 and $ 3 / $ 6 (40bb/100bb). Tables with the antes will also be permitted.
4 - urubu111 can play the limit of his choice, but will have to play at least 100,000 hands the $ 2 / $ 4 and 100,000 hands at the $ 1 / $2. No minimum hands required the $ 3 / $ 6 because there is not much action.
5 - urubu111 must win at least 1 slot at the end of his bet. If after 500,000 hands it is winner of subject and more, he wins the bet. Is it loser of a sub and more, he loses his bet. Rakeback is not counted.
6 - If PokerStars farm, interrupts its services or if PokerStars becomes forbidden to the Brazil, the bet will be cancelled.
7 - If someone of his family died, the bet will be cancelled.
8. it will be always possible to propose a buy-out if, for example, urubu111 is winning a large amount. He will be the judge of that amount and will have the opportunity to accept or not the buy-out.
9 - If there is collusion, urubu111 will lose the bet. Judges will be appointed. Pinball with other players for example will be illegal.
10 - There will be no webcam.
For those who want to bet against, the minimum bets are $ 200 (your $ 200 against his $ 100). The maximum amount of money bet will be $ 40,000 ($40K bettors vs sound $20K).
Updates will be posted in the thread. A member of PokerStars may confirm the outcome in case his Hold'em Manager would have missed a few hands.
Do you think that he will succeed his bet? Is it possible to play so much in so little time a variant where the variance is more present to Hold'em and finish in positive?
Whatever it is, it will be interesting to read more about things.
