impossible

from coinflip.com
"Poker pros are well known for their crazy prop bets. A couple of years ago Mike Matusow won a weight bet with Ted Forrest and people got to see his new slim figure at the WSOP. Now the two have made another weight bet, only this time Forrest has to go on a diet and the terms of the bet are, in one word, crazy.


In the new bet Forrest will have to drop down from his current 85 kg (188 pounds) to 63 kg (139 pounds) by July 15 or he will have to pay $150,000 to Matusow. If he succeeds, he will get 2 million from Matusow, meaning he gets 13:1 for a feat that sounds impossible to accomplish (at least if he wants to stay healthy in the attempt).

If Forrest doesn't make it, he has until September 15 to reach the goal and win 1 million.

Apparently also Justin "Boosted J" Smith has some heavy side action against Forrest."

this is impossible, at least I think it is. I'm about 155 and i can't imagine getting down to 145. I wish i can make a little side bet against Forrest
