Title: Guess my Poker wins/losses Contest
Post by: SenorPablo on 09/28/2008 09:35 PM
Well, I think it's time for another contest.  This will be a somewhat simpler one.  I played poker last weekend.  What was my total win/loss?

Some help: We played with a quarter ante and it was dealer's choice as well as a couple of small ($5 and $10) Texan Hold'em tournaments.  The game went on for about 6 hours with 4 people.  I walked away with a total win/loss that ended in an even dollar amount (no cents.)

Rules: Not more than 2 guesses per day per person.  Guess either a total dollar amount in wins or losses (or 1 of each).  Specify whether you are guessing a win :dancing: or loss :cry:.  At the end of the day Wednesday, the closest person's guess will take the booty (tie goes to the person under versus over, if the 2 closest guesses are equally higher and lower than the true amount.)

The Booty:
Opus X xXx (Power Ranger)
5 Vegas Miami Toro
CI Legends Series Camacho - White
Don Diego Grande
Don Pepin Garcia Imperiales

Good Luck!
-Paul

Good contest!

Hmmm...maybe it was a little too easy, or stogie is a great guesser.  He's got it right.  I won a whopping $10 for my 6 hours.  Congrats!  I'll send out to the address you have in your profile, unless you tell me otherwise.

WOW!  A pure guess - that's usually what I do - play all night and win or lose $5.  One time I played in those "for fun" tournaments with play money and lost about $500 in about an hour.  Maybe the fact that it was play money had something to do with it  :biggrin:

Thanks for the great contest.

I figured it would probably be a win and not too high either. Not many people would make a public game out of a poker loss. I thought it would be on the lower end too, just a guess in that I can remeber playing some long games andf coming out ahead by a couple of bucks. Well, thanks for the fun anyway, that was very generous of you to keep us motivated.  :bigthumbs:

Yeah.   I was thinking about after i posted it and thought you guys would figure it was a win or else why would i remember it.  Then with a quarter ante, it usually doesn't go too high.  Although last winter we played one game of "between the sheets" (aka acey deucey) and the pot went up to like $70.  It was painful to watch people lose so much, especially since i was dealer and called the game.

We usually play once a month or so.  So maybe next time it will be a loss and i'll be willing to talk about it.  ;-)
