A career ending prop bet
Finnish player Miikka Anttonen has potentially staked everything by accepting a prop bet that could call time on his decade long poker career.
Fed up Miikka Anttonen, otherwise known as Chuck Bass, has accepted a potentially career ending bet.
The 30-year-old Fin, admits his current downturn has left him feeling “washed up” and so the challenge made by unnamed bettor(s), could either inspire an upturn in his fortune or put him out of his misery.
The terms - which can be seen in full below - are as follows; he must play a maximum of 100 days of the 120, sixteen of which must be streamed, he must turn €500 into €10k through playing MTTs and he needs to win at least 1,000 of his buy-ins in the process.
Craziest prop bet of his life
The craziest prop bet of my life is about to begin. If I lose I will pretty much have to quit poker forever. Wish me luck ! @UpswingPoker pic.twitter.com/oE7nQJHxZR

The time period of Anttonen's bet will coincide with his birthday as well as both Xmas and New Year plus other planned live poker commitments, complicating the challenge further. Previously arranged live poker games will not count towards the bet either, while the player freely admits to having no idea about streaming making the whole bet even more hazardous.
While he is unable to disclose how much he stands to win, we do know that any failure will mean he will be forced to quit poker as well as posting or blogging ever again, effectively calling time on a 10-year poker career that has seen him collect $285,153 in live career winnings.
