2) Katchalov
3) Raymer
4) Hellmuth

[sweep]

[GunShard]

Tom Dwan

All in on the wsop internet qualifier, Poker on TV has been losing steam over the year. What a better way to get more viewers and people interested in the game and to let a normal broke dyck fuk win it.

[thetrinity]

pretty good list of players this year.

elky and seiver would probably be good picks at their price.

[sweep]

Here's an idea. We get 8 posters put in 100 points. We hold a draft for these 64 players. 8 players per person. Winner takes all. Who's in?

[PaperTrail07]

Ahhh...is Neg gettn scared of the good players?

[mynameismud]

Ahhh...is Neg gettn scared of the good players?

[k13]

Ahhh...is Neg gettn scared of the good players?

The good players never win anyway.

I've seen the odds before, they are laughable.
2plus2 kids lost all their money betting on Ivey and Dwan.

[moses millsap]

lets try to do live draft, shouldnt take more than 10 minutes

[mynameismud]

winning a heads-up tourny is a whole different ballgame.

[daneblazer]

lets try to do live draft, shouldnt take more than 10 minutes

I made a thread for the contest. We can try to do the live draft tonight. Getting people together at the same time is always tough. I'll cover your buy in until you have enough.

[playersonly69]

I will take Brian Hastings and Mohsin Charania

[HauntingTheHoly]

All you have to do is have all players fill out a complete ranking 1-64 and send their forms to an honest poster who can fill in the board for everyone. He would just need a couple other posters to witness the drawing live over video.
