Prop bet of the month: cupcakes at high noon...

Posted on August 18, 2010 by CasinoBazar

Never let it be said that Howard Lederer is afraid of a little action. This is why he challenged fellow Full Tilt Poker pro Andy Bloch to eat 24 cupcakes - gourmet
ones no less - in 90 minutes. Successfully managing to achieve what most potheads do every Friday night would enrich Bloch to the tune of $25,000.

Adding to the intrigue was the fact that Bloch was in the middle of playing the $5,000 Shootout event at the time. Over the course of the next 30 minutes Bloch successfully knocked back six cupcakes before tapping out. Lederer wasn't finished with his quarry, though.

"@Andy-Bloch quit at 6," he tweeted. I have offered 5k for 15 and 10k for 20. Don't think he's going to try." Despite the renewed offers from Lederer, Bloch decided against continuing to pack the sugary treats into his stomach.
