The basic idea is something like 10k hands @ the micros - whoever has the biggest bb/100 at the end wins.
I think this might create some interesting discussions on what the optimal strategy really is... not just: do like whatever -> profit... which is of course true also.
I'd be in for $10-100, depending on against whom and how many...

10k hands? Enjoy variance -> -3 ptBB/100 and I'll enjoy my variance -> 20ptBB/100

I dont think variance can cover -3ptBB/100 at micros for 10k hands

what's the highest stake you consider "micro?"

might as well just put some coin into a slot machine since 10k hands is not credible in projecting a true win rate.

For those of you interested, perhaps upping the antie to 50k or even 100k hands would probably be a real perk towards helping you grind.
10k hands is kinda silly.

The older I get, the more I start wondering; Just what in the hell is going on here?

I never intended anyone playing the micros to do this... wouldn't really make sense.
The only way I'm considering this is for a 3 figure prop bet. Of course it's not projecting a 100% accurate win rate, but that was never the intention. It's just: get a couple of low to mid stakes players back to the micros for a week and see what they can do.
I'd put a big bet with like 8:1 odds on myself that I'm going to be positive, and smaller bets for like 10bb+, 25bb+... - will think about the details if there are any takers.
I didn't see anybody object to the noob HU tournament because just 3 tables will never show a true winrate... why not play 1500 tables over the course of 10 months - that will show who the best players are.

meh i doubt it would be worth it for me moneywise to play 10k hands at a lower limit even if i thought i was +EV in the prop bet, unless we did it for like $300+ and i'm not really willinng to bet that much

maybe, pm me with terms. i'm not sure bb/100 would be fair for you because i'm playing 6max.
