WSOP Fantasy teams rules and selections..(page3)

[fandango]

Money received with thanks.

Thanks again to Carlos and Damon for running this.


Will probably play the Leeds comp. shall I contact Des closer to the time about this?

Might be an idea to contact Des/ and Matt as it might be a case of having a ticket credited to your Coral account so you can register in the holding tank.. No harm in striking SOON

Just had a quick look at players left in the ME (50 places of cash).. These are notables that some may have in their teams..


Selected players remaining:                  
                 
14   Dan Smith         817000
73   Phil Ivey         522500
444   Maria Ho         182500
455   Faraz Jaka         178000
479   John Monnette         162500
.... Stuart Rutter         100000

Adi will be hoping Maria Ho outlasts all.. Now Steve Ball has got two picks still in but as he didn"t want to enter the paid version it could be a costly mistake if Stuart Rutter and his other pick Dan Smith do the business!!

Obviously will have a full scan as players bust..

I may have missed some but, so far as I can see, we only have six players left in between the lot of us:
Griffin Benger
Olivier Busquet
Maria Ho
Stuart Rutter
Phil Ivey
Dan Smith

However, there are two APAT players still in:
Niall Farrell
Steven Warburton

Other names that popped out at me:
Kevin MacPhee
John Juanda
Mukul Pahuja
Tony Hachem
Brian Townsend
Phil Galfond
Vinny Pahuja
Huck Seed
Hasan Habib
Brian Hastings

With both Pahujas still in, wouldn"t that be some Heads-Up?

[MintTrav]

I"m sure we can buy the old fella a beer when we meet next

I"ll look forward to that Carl.

I would look forward to it even more if you hadn"t previously posted this:

I have decided to take a step back from playing APAT live events in season 8

Ha may have to wait till UK team champs then lol think this is my next planned trip

[hi_am_chris]

Would love Brian Townsend to win (SBRUGBY) but maybe would prefer Griffin Benger to win it

[MintTrav]

Just realised that Galfond is also one of ours. Craig has him.

So we have seven.

Except we don"t, cos Olivier Busquet has just busted - 641st for $18,406.

Dan Smith now chip-leader.

[hi_am_chris]

Left in the running:

Steve - Stuart Rutter 860k and Dan Smith 2.2m with $18,406 locked up from Olivier Busquet (who is never European!! )
Chris Hiam - Griffin Benger 2.3m
Adi Long - Maria Ho 544k


Obviously lots of people with Ivey who is now Busto and can"t see anyone that has him with another player in the money.

[MintTrav]

Day 4 has just finished, with 291 players still in. Our tipsters know how to pick them, cos we have got the 3rd and 6th placed players. Chris has Griffin Benger, in 3rd with 2.3m, while Steve has Dan Smith, 6th with 2.2m.

We only lost two more of our players overnight, Galfond finishing 527th for $22,678 and Ivey 430th for a life-changing score of $25,756. Warren, Mark, Simon, Adam, Rob, Barrie, Jason & Dru will have been hoping for better than that, given his previous position. As none of them have a second player in the cash, they are all now out of the running, as is Craig, who just had Galfond.

However, apart from the two already mentioned, we still have three others alive, cos I missed Craig McCorkell last night. How could I miss a former regular Portsmouth player before he hit the big time?

Our remaining runners and riders are:
3 Griffin Benger 2.329m - Chris
6 Dan Smith 2.229m - Steve
52 Craig McCorkell 1.012m - Paxo
75 Stuart Rutter 860k - Steve (should we just ship him the cash now?)
156 Maria Ho 544k - Adrian

Cashes
430 $25,756 Phil Ivey - Warren, Mark, Simon, Adam, Rob, Barrie, Jason & Dru
527 $22,678 Phil Galfond - Craig
641 $18,406 Olivier Busquet - Steve

In APAT news, Niall Farrell finished 624th for $18,406, but Steven Warburton is still there in 265th on 364k.

Your not wrong john, how can Ivey blow a 700k stack when the average was probs not even 100k........ What a DONK lol

[fandango]

Our remaining runners and riders are:

6 Dan Smith 2.229m - Steve

75 Stuart Rutter 860k - Steve (should we just ship him the cash now?)

Shame for Steve that he didn"t want to take part in the paid version.. So those who picked Dan Smith will be hoping Griff busts earlier than Dan..

Oh and forgot to mention.. The incredible Maria Ho is still fighting with 500+k so Adi will be hoping she can outlast them all and bag the prize for him.. She has made many cashes this series and probably will be a good pick for next year!!

[hi_am_chris]

One Time!

[MintTrav]

I had forgotten that some weren"t in the paid version. Specifically, Steve and Dave were the only two not in it so, though they are very much still in the hunt for the title, the cash is a straight last-longer between Chris, backing Griffin Benger, and Adrian, who has Maria Ho.

The title still has four possible winners though. Steve is in the driving seat with multiple runners. If Smith and Rutter stumble, though, it is a straight last-longer between Benger, Ho and McCorkell so far as Chris, Adrian and Dave are concerned.

Day 5 starts at 8pm.

[hi_am_chris]

Assume that if players cash for the same amount highest place finisher would be the tie breaker?

[MintTrav]

The way it has gone so far today, our competition is looking like it will go into Day 6. Getting close to the 200 mark, all our guys are still looking good:

3	Griffin Benger	3,152,000
4	Dan Smith	2,550,000
17	Craig McCorkell	1,870,000
77	Stuart Rutter	970,000
158	Maria Ho	514,000

For the title, I"m going to nail my colours to Mukul Pahuja, who has doubled his stack today to 1.5m.
