Maximum arm wrestling bet?

What is the maximum arm wrestling bet? Is it $100 or does it go beyond that? Just a small curiosity.

Dory Gordie, being the strongest arm wrestler in the game, goes up to $100. He gives up after you beat him for that. So yeah $100 is as high as it get's.

I once manage to beat him in a match for $100 in the Xbox version running on my 360 with a turbo controller that has 3 different speeds. The turbo controllers for Dreamcast are all to fast for the game and it won't register the inputs.
It's virtually impossible to actually do this for real and even turbo is sometimes not enough to handle this guy...

I feel silly for even asking this but I will anyway since I'm curious: I heard a rumor a long time ago that the more crates Ryo lifts, the easier arm wrestling becomes for him. Is there any truth to this rumor? 8-[

In DC I can beat all except the strongest. I beat all of them without resting so my arm was close to be broken and he won, lol.

What really helps here are these programmable joypads, but yeah its not an infinite money maker since they don't wanna have another match if you win :3

I think I read somewhere on here that Ryo gets better at arm wrestling if you do more of the crate carrying job. Any truth to that?

Is there any way to really measure that? I've heard it before, but I don't know if it is true.

I never heard that before. It is believable though. In my hacking sessions, I have never run across a variable that may control this.
