Most people would think that Rich Alati (left in picture) could no longer take the pressure of not knowing how many days had passed since he started this dark room prop bet...but it looks like Alati is determined to finish the 30 days. However, things take a different turn when he received a message from Rory Young (right), and even if Alati can still go on, he has now decided to call it quits.

Who know what really has happened here and the bet was off. Maybe it had to do, with concerns and health issues that may arise, so he called off the bet. He did last twenty days. Wasnt far from reaching his goal. The outcome wasnt that bad though, since he got paid a portion of the total bet.
Honestly, this is some next-level problem gambling in my opinion. Prop bets or not, risking your health to earn next to nothing while everybody on the internet looks at you like you are out of your mind is something that you should consider altogether before you say yes to things like this.
this bet, of course, was completely insane ... 30 days in a dark room without communicating with people .... alone with my thoughts .... and absolutely have no idea about the past tense .... this is of course creepy ... I would I guess I didn’t agree to that .... it really drives me crazy .... it’s not known what the consequences of this person will be after such a test .... it’s really a terrible test

i really thought that this was a very winnable bet and he has done well. If somebody offered me the chance of winning one hundred thousand dollars, i would jump at the chance regardless

At the point the bet was stopped, the chances were favoring the winning of it. But still these 10 days would have been the worst. Lets see if we will get more info in the near future, why the bet was called off. I dont think, that the reason was, for not losing more money, he probably wanted to get him out of the dark sooner, according to the post.

This bet was very weird. If he left the house but he did not lose this bet? What did they do there? Something strange or something else, a bizarre deal? I'm in the haze here. I do not understand anymore. This player who was in the house, should come in front and to say the real truth.

yes I too think this is some strange bet, but I not surprised because people who like gambling and maybe are using some drinking think about some stupid things. so they decide about this bet, and now they both again decide to change bet, so this is normal situation.
