Sure, but I still think you'll do it comfortably. Presumably you want some side action to spur you on.

For the right odds I would be willing to consider 50k hands in 4 days finishing above $0.00 profit but without a limit on the number of hours I could play.

Because of prior commitments I don't have enough free time to come anywhere close to this over a period of more than 5 straight days, and I won't for the rest of the summer (my Thursdays and Fridays are all but completely booked, in other words).
Given some decent odds, I think 15k hands/day for 5 days straight would be a pretty good challenge.

Totally of topic, but that bet of his is insane. I mean if he can run crazy hot and play 24 tables for 12 hours a day for 30 days I guess its doable, but I mean it takes some guts to put up the cash hes putting up.

Who knows, but he has to have red bull in his veins in order to pull this off. Have you seen that thread?

even if he comes short of $10k at the end of 31 days, he will have made atleast $7-8k, so hes not out the full $10k hes putting up. On the other side of it, hes stands to win like $25k on top of whatever he makes on the tables, so that would be a pretty sick month.

wcgrider's bet isn't too sick. it really just boils down to how well he handles 24 tables. if he doesn't handle them very well then he's an idiot and will go the same route as costanza. im thinking of in the future doing some type of winrate bet at micros. maybe something like 10ptbb at 10nl for 100k hands in one month or something. not sure. i wouldn't do it unless i knew i could do it and got like 100k in action. that would be quite a while from now tho

he won 40 buy ins in a day @ 25NL, 20 tabling on his laptop. That was before he got his stake, was just his regular game then (I think) so am sure he could do it.

Spoon Im sorry for hijacking your thread, if it helps at all I do have a pretty good idea for a prop bet. I recently had to withdraw my whole roll in order to help pay off a car that I needed to get rid of so I started from $50 and Im in the process of building a roll, I started at 2nL and Im just about ready for 10NL. I thought 2NL was absolutly insanse espically since the last time I played I was playing 50NL. I was able to beat 2NL for something like 26PTBB/100. I mean we all know that you can kill the midskates but how bout some kind of bet that involves mainting 50ptbb/100 at 2NL for something like 10k hands.
I would personally give you 2:1 that you cant do it but since im in the process of rebuilding a online BR I would only be good for a micro prop bet of maybe like $20 to your $10. Althought Im sure there are plenty of FTR's that have much more they could bet.
