    Default Do any degenerates need an incentive to grind? PART TWO

    I need incentive to grind. I'd like to put in 30K hands between 16th and 31st for a rake race on FTP. If I do get a spot in top 20 for my RB provider I'll get $100+. So I'm willing to bet up to $100. I guess the "whoever reaches their goal" format is fine, although I feel like I'm at a disadvantage already, lol. This is a really steep goal for me. So if anyone wants to take me up, I'd prefer if you set a number of hands you've never played before in half a month. I'm fine with betting small amounts too, just hoping that the total amount will be something that I would really mind losing.

    So not what I thought, I am not even sure I understand.....

    he's looking to make a prop bet where you each set a goal to grind a certain # of hands in a given time period. if both of you reach your goal, no one pays. if both fail, no one pays, but if you hit your goal and the other guy doesn't, he pays up. the point is that he'll have this thought in the back of his head when he's laying on the couch eating chips and watching Leno - "hey I really gotta get on and grind so I don't have to pay mrhobbeys $100 just because my butt is lazy!"

    I would, if I had a decent internet connection (being at home SUCKS). Ah wells, I'll hit you up after boot camp.

    in ur accounts... confiscating ur funz
    I don't mind a prop bet, but I probably won't be playing more than 20k in that period. Also I don't want my decion of whether I'm playing less tables short handed or more tables FR to be influenced by a prop bet.

    Besides - do you really think there is any way you can make the top-20 @ 100NL?

    it's not site-wide it's just my RB provider so I have NO idea
    but the point is I'll make more money grinding than the prop bet is worth imo
