High on Poker was looking to get some prop bets going on the WSOP this year. I decided to gamble a litte. I'm really not a gamble and have had VERY little experience at any kind of prop bet.
I once bet a guy $100.00 that Orlando Bloom was in Saving Private Ryan. I seriously thought the translator was Bloom. It wasn't. He just looked so much like him. Boy was I pissed when I was wrong. I still contend it WAS Orlando Bloom but the credits were wrong.
I've made a last longer bet with Turley once (maybe twice) and I think we're even or something.
I've made two last longer bets with one of my co-workers... I lost both.
I'm hoping to turn my luck around.
Here's the bets:
1) Entrants to the Main Event: 7592 (my pick). He took the under
-----I screwed this one up, big time.
2) Pick'em Horserace: $1 for each final table / $5 for each bracelet
My picks:
a) Phil Hellmuth- he's gonna have a monster series.
b) Joe Hachem- despite the WPT win he has something to prove.
High on Poker
a) Carlos Mortensen- I'm a little worried about him, he's on a tear.
b) James Van Alstyne- juries still out on this one.
I'll probably throw something on the sidebar to keep tabs on it.

You might have very little experience, but when you almost let me pick a player who wasn't going to be at the WSOP, you showed the heart of a true prop bettor. It's all about finding the edge. On that note, how do you know that he won't be playing the WSOP?
I've always wanted to be a part of the WSOP. Guess I should schedule my next gambling trip to Vegas before the event.
