Tank you can maybe help me with this ....

The 2+2 thread about profit for a week,I wanted to get involved but the more I think about it there more I'm thinking it wouldn't be a good idea.The reason I think that is over a shorter period of just a week I reckon there'll be people who'll put in 1500-2000 games maybe more to win the prop whereas I'm never going to put that sort of volume in so would I be -ev to take this on ? or do you not think anyone will put that kind of volume in ?

I think they'll definately be people who want to put 1500-2000 games in, but if they've never done that sort of volume before it'll be a big ask for them to maintain their $/game.

So long as you've got enough clear time to go for it during the week, I think you should go for it tbh. So long as the stakes are medium, the extra volume it will make you put that you wouldn't have otherwise will pay for the prop stake a few times over. You've said that you find it tough to grind without some sort of prop.

Grind about 1200/1300 games and if you run goot you've got a decent enough chance imo.

+if you win you'll have a big 2+2 e-penis. Must have some value

There's all sorts of half baked reasons you can make to participate.

If you fail hard it'll make it easier to get a prop next time.
Doing the transaction increases your reputation, networking and that.
The craic, the thrill of competition, the joy of participation.
The adage that even if you are -EV against the kids if you ignore side factors, gotta give action to get action.
Aforementioned incentive to play (which seems to be quadruply applicable to your lazy ass Smiley )

Bottom line is it's a prop and you're the propman, not the nitman. Only reason to not do it is if you've got too much other shit on that week.

I know it may seem like that as I've only put one big month in and that was when I had the prop but that isn't the case and I'd be surprised if I'd said it.LOL at 2+2 penis haha I'm not sure I want to get involved over there tbh as it seems a lot heavier/argumentative than Blonde and Blonde is enough for me.I probably will give the prop a go though and take that week off from work so I could play a full 7 days to give it a proper go.Is there a load of contradictions in this post or am I making sense.

I'm going to work tmoro as there's a new FD coming in for a couple of months and they wanted all of the financial team to meet him and have discussions so I've swapped days between tmoro and next Monday and I've put in a holiday for next Tuesday with the plan being to put in a massive grind.Its not looking like the props going to be much good as a few are dropping out but I'm not bothered either way.Can I grind for 11 days straight ? we will see.

I've spent the morning recuperating from last night,planning to put a session in from 4 onwards.I've just had a bath and it close to killed me,why I have the bath water so hot I don't know but it won't stop me doing the exact same thing next time.
