Bellagio Bathroom Prop Bet
There's a guy doing a prop bet at the moment where he has to live in a bellagio bathroom for 30 days.
So they did an episode of cribs - Poker Videos - News, Interviews, Strategy, Lifestyle and Tournament Coverage
rules of the bet (taken from cardplayer.com)
The bet will start on Jan. 12 and end Feb. 12 at 4:00 a.m. Pacific time.
He is not allowed to have any access to a computer.
He is allowed only 400 total minutes of cell-phone usage for the duration of the bet. This is being enforced by a prepaid phone specifically purchased by Robl.
He is allowed the use of a small portable DVD player.
His meals will be delivered either by room service or one of his friends; however, he is only allowed a maximum of four deliveries per day and is not permitted to speak to anyone under normal circumstances.
He is not permitted be under the influence in any way that would allow time to appear to move faster.
He is permitted to open the front door for any guests or hotel employees that come his way but must do so without leaving the bathroom.
'I figured if I ever went broke at poker, it wouldn't be because my best wasn't good enough to keep me afloat. It'd be because my worst was bad enough to sink me.'
There is no way he will not win this bet.
Walking away is easy. The hard part is standing up.
Yeah, I think he will do it, especially with all the exposure this has got if he fails he's going to take some stick. Also with a tv in there it's insanely easy. I imagine the only way he fails is that he breaks one of the rules. There's a comment on the 2+2 thread that he has said 18 days is the point of no return.

Totally do-able. It would have been better if he had to read some massive books in that time and be tested on them afterwards, like the Bible or something.

Man this bet is easy. I thought you meant a public bathroom until I saw the video.
