I was thinking about starting up a $4.40 180 man prop bet.  It could just be me and one other person, or maybe a few people winner take all.  Somewhere in the $50-$100 range sounds good.  If it’s like 4 or 5 people it could be lower for a winner take all.  Thinking most profit over 100 games starting at a certain time.  Haven’t done one of these before so I am definitely open to suggestions.

I think we can try it. Let just think when we start and how many games will be played or we just taking in account just time and u can play as much as u can. I would like to start in next week, because right now kind busy, so we can discuss all details by that time.

haha alright, I was afraid the best $4.40 player in the world would take me up on this, alright well just tell me when you want to start, also maybe we could find a few others who want to do a pool type thing, so anyone else who wants in just post in this thread, could be really cool if we get like 5+ people, we can post updates in the thread and so on.  If we don't get any interest within a week, we can just do this one on one.  But would be cool to get a group of people, so please if you are interested, post.Cool

More people would be nice! I ready to start 26/07 and we can play one week. Playing as many as u can, and in the end will count profit/losses, and who will have more profit (or less losses) get's all many from the pool! I'm ok to bet 50$. If it suits u let's arrange exact time, because time difference.

I was more leaning to a set number of games, so it doesn't turn into a grind off lol, do you want to do a 100 game bet for $50?  I am ready to start that when you are, another cool idea is get like some more people, 5+ and one night say, we register for all the $4.40 mans that run from x o'clock to x o'clock and the person with the most profit wins.  That would be fun because we would all be in the same tourneys and could track progress etc… That could be like $25 each and we could do that whenever.

But Antonz I'll definitely do a $50 bet with you, I'd just rather do a set number if that's okay.  Also more people is always good, so if you are interested in any of these ideas please post!

Sorry, been out of town for a few days & just saw this post.  I, too, would be interested in something.  I am laid off right now so any volume won't be an issue.  Lemme know what you guys think.

I don't have the time for this this time around due to moving in to a new house and stuff, but thought I'd offer a bit of advice.

 

Def set a limit on how many games. If you don't then whoever grinds the most will win. I've done a few of these before and the colume cap is the best way IMO. Otherwise it is a slanted bet.

k! If I right already 3 players Me, Stump12, Jshilling09. If it so, let's make 50 games (or some more, but I do play per month ~450, so it will take more time, waiting for results!) Let's make first attempt from 26/07 with 50 games, and 50$ bet, winner  takes all (150$), in order to fix time, I suggest next thing, when we gonna start grind this 50 games, everyone had to post here out 1st Tourney ID, then we can easily track it by sharkscope. If suits u we are starting from 26/07 (we prob have 12 hours time difference if u guys in USA, so start by 26/07 play 50, and so will do I, with posting first game ID here). After playing 50 games we post results here and send to the winner money! We can try it for first time, if it goes nice, in future we can correct may be something and try it again. Any suggestions? Or something u do not like?

I like it, so $50 bet, the first 50 games you play after a specified game (maybe we all reg for the first game?  I think it will make it easier to define the start because it will be one game ID for everyone)  Winner take all for highest profit, or god forbid smallest loss.  More people would be fun, anyone else interested?

Yeap! I like the idea to start at one time! Let's arrange time! For me start would be fine on 26 July, around 04.00-07.00 Moscow time (it's about 20.00 -23.00 July 25 by ET time).

I would be interested.. But how do you keep track of # off games/wins/loses? Seems a little easier said than done.

I'm down for this.  Starting a new job July 26, thank goodness, but can probably still get in 50 games in a week.  I believe someone can set up a Sharkscope custom Leaderboard to track this.  IIRC.

I think it's pretty easy, if we start all from one tourney we can, than just sharkscope results!

Hey guys just wanted to say that I would like to compete  but I am going to be slammed next week and probably will not be able to put in much volume. How quickly do we need to have the 50 games in?

Ok! Guys now I'm ready to grind!  I will start my first tourney July 27, about 04.00-06.00 Moscow time. I will post here my tourney ID. I think it's will be hard to register in same tourney! I think it will be just me and jshilling09, right? 50 games and 50$. Does it make sense? jshilling09 are u agree? and everyone who is gonna join us just say now! No late registration!

Sorry i haven't posted in a couple of days, i pay be echeck, so i am blocked out for a couple of days each month so my check can clear.  I am still willing, why don't we extended the time period to around two weeks for getting your games in so more people can play?  and we all start at the same game, sound good?

I'm fine with even with 2 weeks playing 50 games! But i'm not sure because of time difference how can we run in 1 tourney! but we can try! Let's make a deadline of late registration to our bet. Arrange EXACT time of ending registration and try to figure best time to start will all guys who wanna join! Rules a same 50 games, winner takes all.

I'm fine to do it in 2 weeks. Let's just set final day of the end of registration. Than we can try to arrange starting time (because of time difference it can be hard). Rules a same 50 games, winner takes all prize pool (each make 50 prize fee, unless it will be more than 10 players). I'm ready guys to wait for u! Just post ur thoughts about time and who is interested.

yes 14 days, that is a pretty tough time difference lol, maybe on a sunday where we can play in the afternoon in the states and antonz87 can play at around 10 pm his time?  Anyone else in btw?  And how are we going to do the prize money? All send $50 to someone like jdog and he can ship it to the winner when it's over?  I'm fine with that or the honor system, everyone just sends their money to the winner at the end.

Sunday afternoon is fine with me. As far as the escrow goes, it really doesn't matter how we handle it. I don't think anyone involved is gonna ruin there reputation over 50 bucks. So if you just want everyone to ship 50 to the winner on pokerstars that sounds great.

I would like to suggest that we try to get more runners and a lower price for this bet. 50 bucks could represent a substantial percentage of a 4/180 players bankroll. With that being said I AM IN for 50 bucks for the highest total profit in the next 50 4/180's played starting at 2100 EST, 8/4/10, with 14 days to complete the 50 games. I do not want to do this with me and just one other participant. If there are not at least 3 runners including myself I am out.
