Weight Loss Prop

I'm pretty sure I'm very drunk right now, but I'll write this as it's of immense importance in my life. At this time, there is sort of a week long festival in my home town Orkanger, where everyone meets to get drunk and talk bs.

I entered into a conversation about a friend of mine who looks fat, but he insists he has lost weight. Now, I'm a bit on the heavy side myself, and I feel I need to do something about it. I'm unsure about his weight, but he claims he's at 83kg. I'm 100+ at the moment, which is not a good thing. Nevertheless I bet him that I would weigh less than him at 3rd Jan 2010. He gave me odds, as it's obvious that I'm the one in for the sweat here, so I put up £1k to his £2k. I already enlisted my flatmate to be my trainer, so I'll get some quality help to watch what I'm eating. And even if I don't win the bet, I'll certainly shed quite a few unneeded kgs on the way.

To keep my mind occupied I'll be betting and playing poker as much as ever!

Summer Prop Bets




I just wanted to do a summary of the prop-bets I'll be doing with a mate this summer.

60 meter sprint.
I used to be pretty quick, but I'm a bit bigger now then I was back then. I'm however convinced that I can beat my notoriously slow friend. We made a bet when we were standing in a bar, and 1st July we'll race. Don't expect Bolt times.

FIFA bet
100 matches with me getting +5. Already lost the first six, so I'm behind. I suck at FIFA really, but I made this bet in order to get him to take a reverse bet in NHL, where I'm 99% sure I'll win

NHL bet
The reverse of the above mentioned FIFA bet. I'll take this.

Tennis bet
We are both terrible tennis players, and pretty evenly matched. If I manage to shed a few more pounds before the end of next month, then I think I'll beat him.

There'll probably be loads more, but those are the ones we're doing. I'd welcome suggestions for what two guys in their early twenties, who are both a bit on the heavy side, can bet on.
