Absolute Poker Prop Bet Interview
Absolute Poker recently ran a promotion asking players to submit their wackiest last longer prop bets. They picked the craziest ones and put them up for a public vote with the winner getting a trip out here to Las Vegas and their entry fees to the $1,000 No Limit Hold’em event paid for by the site.
The winners from Absolute Poker Mike Arniss and Tom Lipco, who joined us from the Phil Hellmuth Private Suite at the Rio. They told us about their incredible prop bet which required the loser (who busted out first) to walk home from Las Vegas all the way back to Pennsylvania. These two guys are poker fanatics who made their first trip out to the World Series of Poker and ended up at the bar with us to tell their story.
