In Vegas, myself and 3 others made a bet with Rob Yong.
The bet was that he could not host a heads up tournament with 64 players/runners at DTD before the end of the year with a minimum buy in of 1k.
I take a runner/player to be an individual. So if Brian entered, got ko'd and re-entered, this would still be one runner as he doesn't become 2 runners when entering twice.
How do other people view this?
Neither me or Rob would angle each other - just wanted to see how others interpret the bet and what's fair.
If it's too dubious, then I'm sure the bet wiill be called off.

Obviously would need to be 64 different players as in any headsup comp- so round of last 64 would need to be played. Cant be a rebuy

Seems a bit ridic to have a re-entry HU tournament. Technically 2 people could enter with 32 bullets each and just keep playing.

Rob's talking about a re-entry, so say for e.g. play 2 or 3 rounds on day 1a and same again on 1b with people who busted playing again. Seems a bit ridic to have a re-entry HU tournament. Technically 2 people could enter with 32 bullets each and just keep playing.
why would the winner of the first match enter again?

Seems to me like the total number of entries (incuding re-entries) would be the most appropriate.
If it wasn´t properly defined at the time then my suggestion would be to define it now along with anything else that could be considered ambiguous and if either party is unhappy with the terms as now defined they have the right to withdraw.

id say 64 different runners for him to win the bet- multiple reentries wouldnt count- only because its clear when the bet was placed no-one would have considered this and changing the parameters is obv wrong

Bet is fundamentally based on the level of interest in such an event. I wouldn't see the size of the prizepool generated by less than 64 interested parties as greatly relevant when betting on how much appeal a comp has.

Can't remember the exact conversation but my understanding at the time was that it was unique entries
