Who's idea was it for the $5K bet instead of the more standard $10K TAR type bet?

SVB is very used to the larger bet but in the race to 100 format, so maybe the format change made him want to bet a lil less, OR Bustamante wanted to bet a lil less because he is the slight dog and its a definite road game for him as SVB is more used to 4.25'' diamonds ???

It is what it is. These guys will play the same for $5 or $50,000. $5k is just what it worked out to in order to lock it up and get it done. Things have a way of growing after the match is confirmed though.

Either way its 10k a man since if they split sets the last set is for 10k each correct? I like this format, I wonder if someone wins the first 2 if they would be willing to bet it all on the 3rd set. :thumbup:

Each guys brings $5000. I put it in a safe somewhere. First guy to win two races to 25 I hand $10,000.

If anyone out there wants to up the entry by jumping on Busty's side let me know. All you have to do is give up 40% -50% if you win. Line forms to the right.

This will be a great match.

35$ is not much for this, but I expected that I would be able to download the whole match after it's over? Not just see it on loop for 3 days.

No downloads as of yet. For $35 you get the match live and the recorded footage from that day till two hours before the next day starts.

If you buy the $35 package and it only goes two days I will loop the entire match until Monday at 5 PM Eastern. If it goes three days then only the final set will loop till 5 PM Monday.
