Some bet props have been talking to them in recent weeks in the world of poker.
No sex for 1 year for Esfandiari
First, the man who won more money tournament that anyone, Antonio Esfandiari, has accepted a masochistic bet saw its situation (a young man full of money without official girlfriend): do not have sex for a year. And the bet was strict because it excluded even the solitary pleasures.
At the beginning, the negotiations centred around $ 25,000 for 1 year. Later, rumors want that Antonio accepted the bet for $ 5,000 (which has not been confirmed)! Strange decision for an also well-heeled man!
Obviously, this rumor failed to make chat members of Twoplustwo.
According to a member, Esfandiari would have a very pretty girlfriend as follows (left):
$ 20,000 to spend 6 days in a tub
A little later, it has heard of Nick Divella bet who planned to stay 6 days in a bathtub filled with water.
Here's what looked the rules of the bet:
As mentioned, the bet gives him 5:1 in his favour (it risk $ 4000 to win $ 20,000). All will be filmed by surveillance camera.
No alcohol for 1 year for Ivey
And more recently, this is Phil Ivey, who was talking about him with a bet without alcohol. As of August 27, he tweetait: "my big bet without alcohol begins today ' today... my last SIPs". And the tweet was accompanied by a photo (that accompanies this article).
Phil Ivey is not known to be a heavy drinker, but we know he likes a drink from time to time. The details of the bet are not known. But if Ivey uses the expression "big bet", one can expect that there is lot of money at stake.
Remember that Phil Ivey had bet 1 M$ that he could pass 1 year without eating meat. Tom Dwan who had bet against him agreed that Ivey withdraw from the bet in Exchange for $ 150,000.
The future will tell us if Ivey may dispense with its small occasional glass during 1 year.
