    Nice idea, John! I'd offer my services to team USA, but that will only help the other teams win.

    It would be fun to have some points bounties on the more visible posters.

    Also, only 4 countries? I would have liked to see some groups like the Jew Crew a.k.a. Team Israel (JJgold, FlyingI,MathDotCom etc.), Entitled 7, Crazy Conspiracy posters (Brentcrude,Emily Haines,mrmarket) & barreled in young stud chat crew (sinner, canuckG, rod, framboise etc.)

    For selection? Maybe the number of final tables reached during May's WSOP qualifiers.

    Or something like that.

    I think the USA team needs to have 3 teams North (Union), South (Confederates) and West of the Mississippi teams to represent all areas of the US.

    I actually have played poker for a living you pedo, so your assumptions keep making you look ignorant as per the usual.

    Where do you play?
    And I have never seen you talk about playing poker for a living, so how am I to assume this to be the case.
    I only know of 1 or 2 guys in Vegas that post on here sometimes.

    You are in Calgary right?
    Are you in the Casino off of Deerfoot?

    I have played poker and blackjack for a living for about 3 years of my life, I currently play about twice a week at various casino's mostly at the Grey Eagle off Glenmore Trail. As soon as I had my son I quit gambling for a living to have a secured income, I am a leisure gambler now but I am the best capper and poker player on this site. I am 1-7 in my super ultra non locks of the millenium. I have a 15 inch dick too.

    I'm pretty sure you're not the only full time poker player from Canada on SBR.

    Do you know what country every poster is from?

    Do you know who is and isn't a full-time poker player?

    We will definitely have odds on each team in the book!

    From what I have seen so far it should be dead even with a lean on the USA. The World is actually a very strong contender. Keep in mind there are several excellent players from Costa Rica. Europe probably has the best 3 players or so but depth is an issue with 9 man teams. Canada has the pride factor. And then there is the USA. Nine great players. They will be the team to beat.

    I noticed a lack of discussion around here when Pokerstars and FTP were indicted on Black Friday.
    Im going to start a thread in the poker sub forum, see whats up.

    Maybe I am mistaken in assuming most players doing it for a living do so online.

    Walker I think I should be the Team Canada captain, as I am the most patriotic canadian on the site and I also have a 15 inch pecker pal. Make it happen Walker.
