 Guys, FTR and Bodog are trying to gauge interest for how much betting might be done on the WSOP props found on this page:

http://sports.bodoglife.com/welcome/...ting/poker.jsp

For those unfamiliar with prop (or proposition) bets they are way to gamble on certain instances inside a game or event. The "event" in this case is the entire WSOP Championship, the Main Event, or other events that will have enough interest to warrant making wagers. Looking at the link above one can find many different categories to wager on including:

-will there be a multiple bracelet winner?
-which poker author will win the most money in the series?
-will a woman win an open event in the series?
-etc...

Each bet is accompanied with pay out odds, typically they are yes/no questions allowing a bettor to choose either side but there are also group bets which allow bettors to choose from a list of players.

If there is enough interest there is a possibility for an official FTR last-longer bet held on Bodog's Sportsbook. If we feel there is enough interest and enough participation is either the Main Event or perhaps one of the $1500 NLHE events then we could make it happen. This means there would be a list of a players involved and FTR Members (including those playing I believe) could wager on who makes it further in the event we choose.

Clif notes:
-Is anyone interested in betting on the WSOP?
-Would players be interested in a last-longer bet held on Bodog if we get enough players in one event?
-Any questions about Poker Prop Bets?

Thanks for you time
