Pretty interesting loose poll of poker regulars predicting who takes down the WSOP ME.

A lot of love for the chip leader but at these 5D odds I think the field against McKeehen is the play. No real angle other than fading Joe, who will eventually stop running so good and probably get into tough spots trying to push around the smaller stacks.

Thinking Steinberg and Neuville have the best shot and may put a little down on each but for now I'm only invested in Joe McKeehen not taking it.


Anybody seen any other props for this event? Would love some h2h bets but no luck finding any so far.

The chip leader has a HUGE advantage though and he will use it to steal chips.


Everyone else is more concerned about moving up pay bumps He can double up a lot of people and still be in the top 3 in chips. He actually needs to just every hand without even looking at his cards. Most times he wont get a call and when they do call he is a still huge advantage if they don't hit the flop. They wont be able to call any flop bets without hitting top pair.


Joe is pretty much guaranteed to finish in the top 3

Should've added this to the op I suppose...

Seat 1: Zvi Stern - 29,800,000 (74 bb)
Seat 2: Pierre Neuville - 21,075,000 (52 bb)
Seat 3: Joshua Beckley - 11,800,000 (27 bb)
Seat 4: Max Steinberg - 20,200,000 (50 bb)
Seat 5: Thomas Cannuli - 12,250,000 (30 bb)
Seat 6: Joe McKeehen - 63,100,000 (160 bb)
Seat 7: Patrick Chan - 6,225,000 (15 bb)
Seat 8: Federico Butteroni - 6,200,000 (15 bb)
Seat 9: Neil Blumenfield - 22,000,000 (55 bb)

Not an ideal seating assignment for McKeehen, especially when one or both of those shortys to his left bust. Nice to have a safety net with that stack but he's got 3 killers, Blumenfield Stern and Neuville, with position and big enough stacks of their own to put a serious dent in Joe's.

And PO, you make it seem like the other 8 guys are SBR regulars who will sit around hoping he busts everyone else. These guys are not pushovers and at least 3 are better players than McKeehen so it will not be as easy for him as you seem to think. Overall I think this is one of the most talented tables top to bottom that we've had in years.

Watched a replay of the FT last night and I'm still amazed at McKeehens ability to flop pairs. Fkn kid doesn't miss a flop and even when he flops a dominated trip aces the river saves his ass. By far the most tilting player left, with his goofy faces and slamming the table to check while mean mugging whoevers in the pot with him.

while mean mugging whoevers in the pot with him.

I mean mug 4uk & slanina in pots all the time 'round here...

Doesn't matter if they can't see me... they damn sure feel me and fold faster than a contortionist @ a Midget Orgy.

It's all very metaphysical: only guys with either Gandhi or Rocco Siffredi-like nuance could possibly understand this.

[SharpAngles]

Nobody has the nuance here biter, believe me
