THoughts?

This doesn't seem too hard, who on earth is going to give you 5/2?

Too easy

increased to 72hrs?

I wanted to do 100 at 4s but iv been told il probs die sigh

How is a broken leg going to stop you from playing poker?

cos id be in A&E lol,  and intewrnet connection is shit there

72 is more like it.

 I'll put £50 on assuming the following rule change: toilet breaks only allowed during your scheduled 15 min break.

Pfft, Chip Rich once spent a week in a cupboard...in the dark.

Chip Rich is my Hero!!

If he'd been let out he might have had a chance to develop a decent golf swing.

what happens if u go busto?  no money, no pokerz, u lose right?

That'd be covered by him quitting?

This reminded me of possibly the worst gameshow of all time.

haha yeah touch the truck abso terrrrrible idea lol

mmm chalres idk I think its kinda unfair for me to loose this bet cos i really needed a piss lol - maximum 1 p/hour i could puit in?

Yeah no money/no pokerz = quitting i loose

In endurance world record attempts it's standard for toilet breaks to have to happen in the designated breaks - no sloping off for a piss as and when.

yeah i was just thinking about this and i doubt it''ll be a problem.

The only reason I bring it up is you might take your 15 min break then straight afterwards spend another 10 mins on a toilet break. Seems sort of abusable. I'll let it slide though so your conditions are ok :)

We've successfully snuffed out his plan to win the bet through a 72-hour bout of 'really bad diarrhoea' which involves him kipping in the toilet for 3 days.

norrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Xposed innit

Im gonna want a decent amount of action on this given that its not unfeesable i do myself damage mentally lol

Take out the red bull and I'd definitely take some action on this

id leave it in

the redbull will be a disaster if he starts to use it in the first 24 hours

If u want money this bad, stay healthy, get a job.

+1 on get a job.

I hear co-op are hiring?

I honestly never understand why people want to bet on this sort of stuff tbh. If OP wants to play poker for 72 hours do it, why the need for a bet? I won't that's for sure.......

Seriously what's with the f**king breaks?!?!?

I never understand how these so called endurance events allow breaks of like 5 minutes every hour.

Some of them even save up loads of 5 minutes so they can have a kip.

What a load of bollocks.

If you can go 72 hours without falling asleep I'll send you some money. Forget playing poker just stay awake for 72 hours without the aid of drugs and I'll be impressed enough to ship you a few quid for free.

This............the need to make up a random poker event is a waste of tiime imo................

Amazing I know, but there are one or two people who frequent the internet just in order to gain attention. Mirrion to ever have even been discussed...

Maybe people need to chill out about this? Its just a bit of fun....I'm sure dave wants to know as much as anyone else whether or not he can do it but would like a monetary incentive if possible. It'd be a pretty fun sweat to be playing in the live game with dave after 48 hours. If dave was busto then obv getting staked is far more lucrative than trying out prop bets like this one


In for £250 if it happens

yeah lol

I dont "want" to do it id much rather just play normally, and thanks for the concern over my financial sitation but i'll be fine lol im actually quite likely to loose a quite few thousands attempting this because il likely do whatever i loose in sidebets playing lol

Was just seeing if it was interested to anyone, was also thinking of putting a chairty element into it as well bag some Karma up yoyo


Sorry buddy but i have to HU4ROLLZ you after this comment ;)

Also I cant believe I didnt make this clear sorry, I have to stay 100% awake for the whole period.

sorry to be a cock but...

loose - not tight; not closely constrained or constricted or constricting; "loose clothing"; "the large shoes were very loose"

lose - fail to win; "We lost the battle but we won the war"

cant argue with this.

At 5/2 I will have £200 on this but I will want to know date and times so I can come in for the last 10 hours and make sure you don't do it

ofc :)

Is there a minimum limit you'll be playing online?

Doubt i'll play lower than .50/1 I play 1/2 plo HU as my regular game, for the benefit of this exercise I'll probs grind out the .50/1 6max games and gameselect like a bitch cos Im an massive dog to make any money playing during this exercise lol

will Gala let you have your laptop inside the casno??

I'm going to ask them, i wanna do it for benefit of their cancer charity as well, but I have a good relationship with the guys there should be a gd bit of fun IMO

CHANGED - no toilet breaks

NO ENERGY DRINkS

OP EDITED.

ive changed my mind -i think that 72 hours could be tough

gl with this

TY, I always used to claim I could play redic long sessions but never actually have lol gg body

What the update  with this?? When you planning ot and do it

I'll lay you a bit.

I'm assuming you won't have a support team there keeping you awake or anything?  Basically up to you to stop yourself nodding off at the table.

Nope it's just me, my friends will be divided between the ones who want me to do it (tht havent bet) and the ones who'll be sat behind me playing lullabyes and harp music (the ones who have)

I decided to do it either way, Il PM you to discuss in a bit TY

If I'm around Leeds I will be in fir the last 10 or so hours will pillows and sleeping bags making him wanna quit lol

I wonder if we can convince gala to put this out through the main speakers :D

Ok spoke to the hguys at gala last night and this wi;ll have to be a 100% live challenge so I'll be taking on any challengers during the quiet hours even if I have to play HU if anyone wants to play HU vs someone who hasnt slept for 50 hours brrrrring it on lol

Shotgun playing heads up

[ ] will play dan morgan HUNL after being up for 2.5 days.

but we can defo play in the first 20 hours lol PLO ideally where i wont get too owned

lol I can probably only play you towards the tail end of it 'cos I live in sheffield so probably only gunna be there for the last ~12 hours so that you can collect my money in person and subject me to some sort of smug look.

also don't let the end of this overlap with ukipt dublin please 'cos i'll be away then

we could play snap instead?

Fuck it ask chris if you cando it at the grovs then? You I know the days if I'm around I will come in during the day to try get a cash game and if you ask all the gala regs to come up to you will be helping chris out to

Been playing at the gala the last couple of weeks, the regs there seem to be mainly chinese, as in the ones in there every night. Good luck getting them to go over to grov. But it isn't that a bad suggestion, surely you could get chris, pell and garry to go over to the grosevnor. you seemed pretty friendly with them last time i played over there.
pretty sure chris would try and get the laptops issue sorted over there as well if it meant 3 days of people sitting and playing cash and bringing people through the doors. laptops might be a long shot but who knows. Are laptops banned in every casino in the country? if neil channing wanted to do this is in the vic surely they'd let him bring in a laptop?

afaik laptops are banned because of cheating implications with roulette. HOWEVER there is a guy in the manc G (known as the bookie!) who is allowed his laptop into the casino the use whilst he's playing pokers, so he can keep on top of his betting activity - obv this guy has a solid rep and is a very nice guy as well - but it shows tthey can bend the rules if they want to. unfirtuantley as my net roulette and BJ losses are not yet to hit 6figures they probs wont do it for me (dig!) I really dont mind playing the whole thing live if I can get peple to come play me during the day? I'll play HU ofc but would prefer 4-6handed games (anymore is unrealistic imo) or I could do 4hr stints vs people HU - challengers welcome!

could get it to grosvenor id be delighted to do it there, I just dont believe atm that the traffic is sufficient to keep the bet going, although if it was id happily do it there!

Mr Cooper time to join the thread imo

The look will be one of a inner joy and smugness masked by a man ready to collapse and die from exhaustion :)

yeah snap works, 10p a game?

Yeah 10p a game sounds good. Sick hourly for me I reckon :P

Well if you say way from the table games what's the problem? Have you dropped chris a text? I can text him later if you wish?

Cba trailing through all the pages on this - Dave spent all night railing me last night on FT - If he wants to do anything with us he knows where I am...

So we have a venue let's get a date now

I need traffic though, no offence to chris whose offer to help is definatley appriciated, but may well be eaiser to doit at gala cos the games run late.


sigh, getting bumhunted for fkin snap now - such a fish

Im thinking October 1st? I need to make some money in september lol Think we got it on, I would like people to either PM or pst on here to volunteer to play me during the day, HU/3/4/5handed w/e I could do like 4hour HU stints if someone wanted to reserve a slot for a HU match

***disclaimer*** I dont have to play HU is there is the option for a 3-9max game.

My best mate has just been insanely ill with meningitous and he's really suffering atm, so Id quite like to do it for a menigitous charity

Im still taking bets backing myself at 5/2 but Id quite like poeple to sponsor the charity though.

I'd be happy to give 25% of any winnings from the game to whatever charitiy you choose

likely to be high imo

but TY nice offer. i'll reccipricate if we play HU
