Some prop bets are fun, some crazy, others still life-changing – but the general opinion is that Huck Seed’s latest $100k Bathroom Challenge is just downright dangerous… not mention almost impossible…


The 1996 WSOP Main Event champ is notorious for his prop betting, once wagering $50k with Phil Hellmuth that he could stand up to his shoulders in the Pacific Ocean for 24 hours, a bet he lost after a mere 3 and half hours submerged. And there have been more!

  • No shaving or cutting his hair until he had won another WSOP bracelet? Yep, 4-time winner Huck made a series of bets on that, and lost.
  • A $5k bet that he could defeat Howard Lederer in a ā€˜50 yard dash’ – Seed only allowed to hop on one leg? Sure, Huck was up for it – but lost again after seeing ā€˜The Professor’ on a practice run.
  •  Betting $10k that he could backflip his 6’7ā€ frame from a standing start? Huck won this one against Lederer, again, and made $10k from it – Lederer unaware that Seed’s uncle was former acrobat who had taught him the impressive trick as child.


So, the Bathroom Challenge? If it sounds familiar that’s because a decade ago Jay Kwik won a similar prop bet with Andrew Robl, although Kwik had it easy compared to Seed’s proposed bet.

Home comforts weren’t exactly lacking when Kwik won his bet a mere 4 days in, but Seed’s attempt will not only be much less luxurious, but a tad more dangerous!

Spending 30 days in the dark, completely alone apart from one very brief ā€˜food drop’ per week? That way madness lies according to many…





How long do you think Huck – or yourself – would last? Answers below please!
