Quitting point.

You get the figure you quote deposited into your bank account immediately, tax free and no strings attached.

So with that in mind, whats the amount it would take for you to....

1) Never play a hand of online poker again.
2) Never play a hand of live poker again.
3) Never play a hand of live or online poker ever again.

A lot of us here like a gamble too, be that a fiver acca every Saturday up to sticking hundreds on short odds 'guarantees', so...

4) Never have a sports bet again.
5) Never have any form of monetary gamble ever again, including lotto/scratchcards, bets with friends, novelty bets etc
6) 4+5, but inclusive of all poker too.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

For me...

1) £10k
2) £20k
3) £40k
4) £5k
5) £7k
6) £50k

These figures have been plucked with not much thought but they are my gut instinct amounts.

    That's a tremendously generous offer H. The answer depends on state of mind obviously and I have to say that I have hardly played any poker at all in the last few weeks (how ironic eh!) So here goes:-

    1) 20K
    2)   5K (never played live but will have to in the near future)
    3) 25K
    4)   Does this include the occasional free bet that Sky gives out as other than that I haven't placed a bet in many, many years, so lets say £500
    5) £500
    6) £30K

    All of the above may change depending on my situation and if poker draws me in again (no pun intended). Please note that some of these were priced to get a call and I expect to see the funds arrive in due course.

    5. £100k
    6, £500k, 


    Would probably take less than that for all questions if it was sitting there in front of me in cash, but the thought of not having any poker/sports betting would leave me with a huge void to fill.

    Hi stalker tool.

    No amount of money in the world is worth having if it means I can't make you look stupid every time you post (which in all honesty really isn't difficult), so after brief consideration I discount your proposal.

    Thanks though, and good luck with the fundung, whatever that is.

    I'm really hoping that isn't 2 separate words-specialist stuff, that. To the questions:-

    1. £50k
    2. £20k
    3. £70k
    4. £5.47
    5. £6.32
    6. £70k

    Not much of a gambler, me...

    1. £25k
    2. about $9million (while I have never played live I would have to give up the dream of winning the WSOP main event so that seems a fair price).
    3. $9million + £25k
    4. £25k
    5. £30k
    6. Call it a round $10Million
