Poker pro Shaun Deeb has accepted Bill Perkins’ challenge in the hopes of winning a million dollars. If he wants to win $1 million at the WSOP in 2024, he has to reduce his body fat percentage to 17% or below. The chances of this happening are 10 to 1.
Deeb will have to pay $100k if he falls short of the target. Due to Doug Polk’s loss on a similar wager in February, Perkins was able to cash in for $200,000.
Polk needed to cut his body fat in half in a year, and he only got down to 15.1%, falling short by 1.3%.
Deeb, who is 6’2″ tall, weighs 138 right now. The grinder will soon be undergoing diagnostics to determine his body mass index.
The prop bets have gone crazy. Despite Deeb’s aversion to working out, Dan Smith is ready to risk $100,000 on his friend’s success in a bet.
