Let M n be the number of steps of the loop-erasure of a simple random walk on ℤ 2 from the origin to the circle of radius n. We relate the moments of M n to Es(n), the probability that a random walk and an independent loop-erased random walk both started at the origin do not intersect up to leaving the ball of radius n. This allows us to show that there exists C such that for all n and all k = 1, 2, ..., E[M k n ]≤ and hence to establish exponential moment bounds for M n . This implies that there exists c > 0 such that for all n and all λ ≥ 0, P{M n > λE[M n ]} ≤ 2e ―cλ . Using similar techniques, we then establish a second moment result for a specific conditioned random walk which enables us to prove that for any α 0 such that for all n and λ > 0, P{M n < λ ―1 E[M n ]} ≤ Ce ―c'λα .
