Any interest in a cash pool on Eeyonkee sending Lucille during the Lucillefest the weekend of Aug 5th?

Here's the options

1. On sight
2. Red Point 2nd try
3. Red Point 3rd try
4. Red Point 4th or above
5. Did not send, went home with his tail between his legs and head hung low, regained the 10 or so pounds he lost this winter by upping his 4 beers a night to 6-9 beers a night. (note This option has nothing to do with gaining weight, if he does not send and you select this option then you win.)

$5 to get in. Pick your outcome. Enter as many times as you like. The purse will be split by the people who picked the winning outcome.

$1000 for an onsight by eeyonkee*

*Actual contribution to pool may vary by $1000, though said variance should not be interpreted as lack of confidence in his supernatural OW abilities.

I will throw down $5 for the onsight. He's a monster and won't be stopped! I won't be there to watch however so let me know how it goes and where I can pick up my big money.

and $5 for 2nd try red point. By betting on the 2 options, I assure myself to lose money. And I like that.

I'll go with #4.... I think that is something called a redpoint taking 4 tries or more.

The man is thick with muscle and long on talent, but that there Lucille..... whoo-eeee..... it looks tough.

I'll take #5: Defeated. (Pot odds and all that, the math says bet against him)

I figure you get about 3 solid attempts on something like that in a day, and the next day you probably feel worked, plus you needed an extra beer or two the night after day #1 to alleviate the pain and mental strain of knowing it's still waiting for you, so on day 2 you get about 1 real attempt.

But he's stout, has the skillz, and plenty of give-er. Let's hope I lose.
