Prop Bet New: $10K at PokerStars $25 NL Holdem

If you follow online poker and are a member of popular poker forums you’ve likely heard of the prop bet a two plus two poster WGCRider, real name Doug Polk, has made with fellow forum members. He has approximately $20K at risk to win $50K that he win $10,000 playing only $25 buy-in No Limit Holdem at PokerStars in 31 days or less. When this news first broke many thought it was an impossible challenge but after playing 20 some odd tables at a time for 16 or more hours per day while broadcasting himself on a webcam, after 11 days he finds himself up $3,000. He’s a bit behind the pace needed to make the mark but he recently came off a streak of 50,000 break even hands and if he can avoid this in the coming days he can likely find himself catching up quite quickly. This is obviously a monster sized prop bet, in terms of challenge involved, which we will be now following closely.
