In the world of high-stakes poker, professional poker players are known almost as much for their crazy prop bets as they are for their tournament accomplishments. In a recent challenge Joe Sebok had to make good when he lost a last longer prop bet with teammates Gavin Smith and Jeff Madsen. Busting first meant Sebok had to bite the bullet and get his body adorned and permanently inked with the heads of Smith and Madsen.

While having to go through life with your buddies faces tattooed on your body may seem a little extreme, it isn't much different from other prop bets which have included streaking down the Strip in Vegas in the girlfriend’s underwear, or singing an earsplitting  karaoke version of ‘The Gambler’ in front of the Bellagio Fountain.

Since proposition bets are as common in the poker world as neon lights are in Las Vegas, UB and Absolute Poker decided to jump in and offer some prop bet action for their own players to have fun with. The Craziest Last Longer Bet promotion is for those poker players who love to live on the edge and only those with the most outlandish and ridiculous last longer bets are invited. And since there is a World Series of Poker VIP prize package on the line, there is a lot more at stake here than just the opportunity to one-up your best buddy.

This unique promotion will have poker players channeling their inner Martin Scorsese or Quentin Tarantino - all in a bid to outlast their best buddy at the felt in a major WSOP tournament this summer in Las Vegas. So drag out your video camera, WebCam or iPhone, then get creative and crazy as you explain exactly what you're prop bet is and the consequences for the loser. Then share your most outrageous Last Longer Bet idea with the world On YouTube, and tag it either “Our video for the www.UB.com last longer bet” or “ www.AbsolutePoker.com WSOP 2010 last longer bet.”

If that crazy idea of yours gets the most votes, the CEREUS Network will ship you and your co-conspiring poker buddy to Las Vegas to play out your bet in Event # 54 of the WSOP, a $1,000 buy-in No Limit Hold ‘em event that kicks off at the Rio on July 1, 2010!

Not only will you two wild and crazy poker players each receive a seat in the WSOP Event # 54,
but also airfares to Las Vegas, hotel accommodation, and a meet and greet with Team UB and Absolute Poker pro players while hanging with them at the exclusive invitation-only UB player party! So, get creative, crazy and freaky, then get to filming because the Craziest Last Longer Bet online promotion is running NOW at both UB and Absolute Poker.
