-we always travel together, split room costs, etc. when we play in tunica, vegas, etc..


I don't know how we haven't seen each other at tournaments since the argosy days. BJ is one of the few guys I still meet up with every event I go to from back in the day.

07 I got there like a day or two after he was leaving. He was supposed to come back for the ME but couldn't. Last year we were there the same time but I thought he was staying with his friend from Alabama.

Ya I don't either. Me him and his friend were in a few tournaments last year together but I think they left before the ME. I just shot him an IM cause I couldn't remember his friends name but he hasn't responded. Was Brian a guy who looked like he worked out a lot and his mom was there for part of the series?

One of my buddies was thinking of entering. Hadn't talked to him about it yet. If he makes it to the money I think he is flying a few of us up there.

I wasn't aware you actually wanted to. I could set you up with the people who will review your online stats which would probably be the best way to go. I can't promise anything but it would be a foot in the door. Anyone who is backed live is backed by someone who has known them personally for a while so I couldn't just say, hey back my friend ya know?

-i was thinking either a straight up, most weight lost bet, maybe $400 or so ???

-or a weigh in, then $20 per pound player A loses over player B...

what do you think?


What about this, we could each have a goal weight that is the same % of body weight for each of us. (An example: The goal is to lose 15% of body weight)

The amount at stake is 1k. (you and I both know that $400 would only motivate us for so long, lol) If I make the goal weight and you dont, then you owe me 1k, if you make the goal and I dont, then I owe you 1k. If we both make our goal then its a push. I think the object is to lose weight and not neccessarily to win money. I'm pretty sure 1k would motivate me to hit my goal.
