Six Push-Up For $100
Level 8
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
"We need an unbiased judge!" Dee Tiller just shouted, as we rushed over to see what was going on.
Frank Kassela was appointed to be the unbiased to judge, and the bet was as following.
Tiller had bet Chris Tryba he couldn't do six push-ups for $100, and the bet was on.
Kassela got on his knees to watch Tryba do the push-ups while Tiller shouted, "His nose has to touch the ground!"
Tryba barely did seven push-ups and Tiller paid up. Tryba, with a face as red as a tomato, was filled with joy over accomplishing the bet but he also felt embarrassed the line Tiller set was so close.
"I'm embarrassed!" Tryba yelled, but he did collect $100.
