Superheros to Play at World Series of Poker - Well, sort of …
A proposition bet, familiar to sports bettors and poker players from all walks of life, can be loosely defined as a more exotic type of betting option than just picking a game’s winner or loser. Typical examples of "prop" bets in poker would be wagering on who is more likely to win a particular hand, or on whether or not a player will catch one of his or her outs needed to scoop a pot. But the following wager appears as though it will raise prop bets to a new level in the poker world. Apparently, two poker pros, Gavin Smith and Joe Sebok, have risked extreme embarrassment during this upcoming World Series of Poker (WSOP) through a "super" prop bet.
