The one thing I've noticed is that these "pro" players like, no LOVE, to bet on everything. So in that vein I'm starting a pool on today's Thursday Tourney - I'm ONLY putting down BJT.com people who I know so forgive me if I forget anyone Name Odds - Advancing to the Final Odds on winning Final Table Ken Smith 1:3 1:10 Joep 1:6 1:20 Hollywood D 1:5.75 1:11.25 Munchkin 1:8 1:16 Big Chuck 1:3 1:3 EastTXpro 1:8 1:16 Russ 1:4 1:7 FGK 1:150 priceless For everything else there's Mastercard:laugh: These are MY odds so don't complain about the rankings. Big chuck got better odds because he's bigger than me and will smack me around if I don't do that Russ has such good odds because he has a bankroll to choke a horse and he'll just keep buying back in if he gets knocked out! HD gets the 3/4 because - well just because he's the ONLY one down here spouting off percentages to screw with people as they're betting - so here's back at ya boss! My odds - well I'm seen how these guys/gals play and darn it I STILL CAN'T FIGURE OUT THE PURPLE FROM CHOCHLATE CHIPS!
My bet Why is bigchuck a 1:3 for a final table and 1:3 for the win? I'll bet £1 on you to make the final table and £10 on Ken to win. What odds are you putting on Ken E? Cheers Reachy
1. Why those odds on Big Chuck? Do you know WHY they call him BIG Chuck? I feel like a shrimp next to the guy so to protect myself (in case he reads this) THAT's why. Plus he had the balls to play at the 1,000 table and he has won at least 2 sit-n-go's that I know of! 2. What about Kenny E? Ok I forgot about him I don't see how as he is running around in his bright yellow shirts! I haven't seen Ken E play since I've been here - been too busy playing and watching players at my tables but since he's Joep's buddy, not to mention the ex-World BJ champ Kenny E odds final table 1:4 win final table 1:4
My odds should be improving. I advanced from my initial table, where the final hand was a showdown between me, Big Chuck, and Annie Duke. I play the next round at 7 PM.
UPDATED ODDS Ken Smith 1:2 1:2 Joep 1:10 1:40 Hollywood ELIMINATED NOPE East TX pro 1:10 1:45 Russ: NOT PLAYING Kenny E: 1:10 1:4 FGK ELIMINATED NOPE I don't know about the others - BTW this is a non-scientific poll based soley on my PERSONAL observations
I'm out. On the last hand of the semifinals, it's down to me and one other player. Neither of us have a secret bet left. He has the button, and goes all-in with $22,000. I match his $22,000 and leave $3250 unbet. Pretty good spot, eh? He gets a snapper. Game over for me and he's at the final table. First place tonight paid $21,000. I left before it was over, and didn't even bother noting who all made the final table: Here are three who did: Anthony Curtis, Annie Duke (she rebought after I beat her earlier), Bryan Micon (snapper guy!)
Odds? Maybe we could get JoeP and Big Tex involved in your odds making system? That should prove lively.
