Rampant speculation:
-Matt had a lot of PPT bonds
-This bet was merely an attempt to pump their value back up to 50% before he sold them off.

He says, Quote
The above post would be betting 20BTC that he in fact is not going to payout as described. If I lose the bet, you get 20BTC sent to that address. If you lose, you'll need to send 20BTC to my address.
Meaning if he loses, he will pay to "that address" that you provided when you placed the bet in the format he specified. Seems legit to me...You mean this: http://blockchain.info/tx/16e72a37f4608dc0393514e1d24702639ec853bac99f8c9c6436b0aa4904110f
The funny thing is: I don't event get the joke! Who can actually take this guy AND his magazine serious?
Wonder what would have happened if pirate actually paid....

He'd probably have given out "that address" as the address to send payments to.
The fact that he is associated with that magazine has lost it many potential subscriptions.
Are you kidding ? Who out of the trolls on this forum WOULD have subscribed to news that they all talk about on a daily basis on this forum ?
Bitcoin Magazine is not targeted to bitcointalk.org geeks and trolls. It's target is the REAL WORLD in an attempt to bring more people INTO the Bitcoin environment and introduce them to something new.
Nice try though.
If matt loses he pays 20btc to 13dSK4663Ts7j2PwHS1eUVjycKLBwx7PJM. And he did it.
Thats not what it said. It said to "that" address, which any reasonable person would interpret as the address entered by the person accepting the bet, rather than the stated example. ITs the sort of thing a 7 year old who thinks he is clever would try to pull off. I never expected matthew to pay, but he fully deserves the scammer tag.

If matt won all participants had to pay him their bets.

Except that is absolutely not what he said. He said "to that address" that would be specified "in the following format"
FORMAT. Not that specific address. Troll fail big time.
Who can actually take this guy AND his magazine serious?
First off, IT'S NOT HIS MAGAZINE.
Do you own the company that you work for ? (unless you are self employed that is).
Matthew is an employee of Bitcoin Magazine. HE DOES NOT OWN IT and IT IS NOT HIS.

Yeah literal. We all knew what the format meant. The literal meaning is just an attempt to get out of the bet.
