WSOP 2015 Fantasy poker rules.. Pick your team

Thought McCorkell cashed in the #16, his tweets say he cashed at least...

(3rd #WSOP cash of the summer in the #MillionaireMaker - Still 700 people left in this one though)

Judge"s decision is binding,  Dave,  otherwise we"d have chaos with everyone asking for results to be changed. Sorry about that, but the result will have to stand as reported.

Razz is on FT.. Hellmuth and Chidwick have 5 points locked.. (10 for me 20 if he spins up his short stack) Seidel cashed so earns 1 point.. A young English player Adam Owen has a slender CL over Phil.. checked his stats amazing how he can afford a $10K buy in?? must be staked.

So all you Hellmuth fans will be cheering your man on to try and snaffle you all 20 points!

Only joking Paxo - you get your point. Gareth and Adam had two players cashing. Suzanne just had one, but Bonomo is her captain.

A young English player Adam Owen has a slender CL over Phil.. checked his stats amazing how he can afford a $10K buy in?? must be staked.

He has been on a hot streak lately, finishing second to Mercier in the SCOOP Badugi H for $25k in early May and then winning $120k for finishing second in the Sunday Warm-Up two weeks ago. Plus various other stuff before.

Yes. Cos I did it in a rush before I left the house. I"ll go back through it and recheck in case anything else is missed.

So, the Razz changes everything. All the patient building of points over several tournaments by Carl, IrishTom and Craig is blown out of the water by one amazing tournament.

Hellmuth started off Day 2 short-stacked and double-booked. He resolved the double-booking by crashing out of the Millionaire-Maker in the first level of its Day 2. I wonder what he would have done if he had doubled up a couple of times instead of losing. He climbed steadily through the field all day in the Razz. From 61/63, I remember him being 24/36 and 11/16. Then suddenly he was 3rd and then 1st. Once it got to the last half-dozen players, it never seemed like he wasn"t going to win.

Only four people didn"t include Hellmuth in their team and three of those picked Chidwick, so everyone except Suzanne scored lots of points in this tournament. Steve and Tom F scored 25 points by having Hellmuth as their captain and also including Chidders.

The league has changed totally. Everyone now has points and some have gone from zero to near the top. These are the points after 18 events:

Selector	Points
Carl	30
Steve	30
Paxo	28
Tom F	27
Tom B	23
Craig	22
Debbie	22
Rob	21
Chris	20
Del	20
Barrie	19
George	19
Simon L	19
Brian	18
Adam Sz	18
Simon B	18
Gareth	17
Richard	17
John	16
Ena	15
Dann	14
Paul	11
Suzanne	5

(I have decided to refer to Adam Sharples as Ena from now on to stop myself getting confused between the Adams.)

And now Negreanu has managed a cash as well.

Barrie had both players (the only person to pick Chiu). The other two-scorers had Negs as captain.
