With the summer poker season wrapped up in Las Vegas, the results are in for the crossbook between Landon Tice and Jeremy Becker.

The bet began on May 28 and lasted nearly two months, ending on July 18. As reported by Poker.Org, Becker was the victor by a margin of $71,742 despite both players ending in the red for five-figure sums.

What is a Crossbook?

The bet was a 100% crossbook across a minimum of 25 events this summer, both at the World Series of Poker and other festivals, with buy-ins of $10,000 or under. Online events were excluded.

A crossbook is a bet between players in the same tournament or cash game where “the player who loses owes the winner a percentage of that player’s net winnings (vs. the losing player’s net winnings) in the event,” according to Upswing Poker.

For example, if Becker and Tice both played an event and one cashed for $0 and the other cashed for $100,000, the winning side would be owed $100,000 (plus a buy-in). If the loser cashed for $25,000, they would owe $75,000, and so on.

Both Players End Up Down in Crossbook

The duo put in a grind in the scorching heat of Sin City, with 176 bullets fired between them. Becker, who was supported by Daniel Negreanu, recorded the most entries with 90, four more than his opponent.

Becker’s total buy-ins came to $165,764, and he cashed for $148,627, making for a $17,137 deficit. Tice, who had Matt Berkey in his corner, wound up with a loss of $88,879 after his $185,710 in buy-ins paid him back $96,831. With that, Tice had to pay Becker the difference, which came to $71,742.

Becker’s biggest cash of the summer came on the last day of the crossbook, where he placed eighth in the Venetian $1,600 Mystery Bounty for $23,395. Tice’s best payout was for slightly more, receiving $29,353 after bowing out in 88th in the $10,400 Wynn Summer Championship. Becker made the money in 19 of the 62 unique events that he played, while Tice’s nine results came from 54 tournaments.

Not All Doom and Gloom for Tice

Within the scope of the crossbook, it paints Tice’s summer as a losing one, but that wasn’t quite the case for the ‘Child of the Sim.’

On May 30, Tice banked a career-best score of $550,000 after ending as the runner-up in the World Poker Tour (WPT) Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown.

Why didn’t that count towards the crossbook, I hear you ask? Well, that’s because the tournament began at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida in April. Action paused for over a month once the final table had been reached, and the remaining six players took a break before traveling to Las Vegas — more specifically, the HyperX Arena at Luxor — to play it down to a winner.

Josh Reichard, a 15-time World Series of Poker Circuit (WSOPC) ring winner, walked away as the champion in that event and banked the $839,300 up top after despatching Tice in heads-up play.
