Fadyen 0 Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Wow, so many tough groups. Not gonna give away all my guesses but from the tougher groups heres my thoughts. Group 1 has to be ElkY though, Mr PCA is due for a good world series. Group 5 I gotta go for Chris Moorman, I think he's a very under-rated player and could do well. Group 6 full of legends but I gotta go with Juanda although very tempted to pick Seidel after the run he had last year. Group 7, where's Max Heinzelman? But yeh I expect Benny to go deep in some events. Group 9 seems tough but how can you not go for the triple crown winner? And finally Group 12 I expect most people to pick Isildur1 but he's not too used to big live events yet, I say he goes deep in one, maybe wins but then he'll burn out. Overall I see Juha Helppi doing better.Good luck to everyone, think this is a great idea to get everyone interested in whats going on over the summer. Hope to see a few of my pcks in the November 9 lol. Link to post Share on other sites

what is check 0 Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 will there be a way for us to follow the standings? Even if it's just like the top 50 entries or something?EDIT: never mind, just saw the post with the standings page, thanks. Link to post Share on other sites
Waffles2003 1 Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 It looks like everyone's picks are visible, wouldn't it be more fair to block the view for other teams other than yours? Link to post Share on other sites
FCP Bob 1,312 Posted May 23, 2012 Author Share Posted May 23, 2012 It looks like everyone's picks are visible, wouldn't it be more fair to block the view for other teams other than yours?I don't think there is a problem with seeing other's picks since you can justify any player being picked plus to only show your picks would require creating a site with log ins and passwords and that would be just far too much to build for this pool.Also it'll be a great thing to see other's picks one the tourneys have started.

thedevilinme 0 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Just put in my picks....... Can not wait to win the $10 from Daniel.......... Woo hoo Link to post Share on other sites
SultanPoker 1 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 i.e. I took Faraz Jaka over Hassan Habib because I think that he will play a lot more although I think that Habib is a more consistent player. That is exactly how I analysed it also!Haha, I took the exact same line with Jaka>Habib. Exact same thought process. Great minds think alike maybe? Link to post Share on other sites
FerencL 0 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Thanks Daniel.I won Tony Guoga's (PokerNews/ChipMeUp) similar WSOP contest in 2009 so I picked Tony this time. In 2009, he said he was working on his mixed games - maybe this year we'll see the fruit of that hard work (but I'm not holding my breath).Good luck to everyone. Link to post Share on other sites

tkousc 0 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Where does it show the standings at? This is pretty awesome to be able to do this for free and win prizes. Now if we could just play again online in the USA everything would be perfect. Link to post Share on other sites
datsixonetwo 0 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Hardest part for me was definitely the tie-breaker. What does everyone have? Link to post Share on other sites
slaughter208 0 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Yeah the tie breaker is tricky with that 1 million dollar buyin sng this year. I have no clue what would be a good number. Wouldn't go too high though. Link to post Share on other sites
zbajszek 0 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 I'm in too, and by the look of it it my picks were very similar to Daniel's picks. Link to post Share on other sites

Protential 0 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Thanks for doing this daniel, cool promo! Hope to see you again at the series this year (maybe play vs you ). Good luck to everyone! Link to post Share on other sites
FileError404 0 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Damn, for some reason I didn't account for ME and One Drop tourneys, mistakingly thought they don't count... they just don't count for the 1% prize. Have to email and change.Haven't been here forever, Daniel just brought me back via his blog. Thanks a lot Daniel, great promotion and will be so much more fun to watch all the FTs this year.Best of luck to you this year! Link to post Share on other sites
NthingToLose 0 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 This is really awesome. Thank you DN..Def agree we should see what % picks what after close if possible. That'd be super interesting. Link to post Share on other sites
Sleepis4beginners 2 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Really hard to choose but at the end of the day I decided to go with some players who have not lived up to expectations in the past couple years. Yes, Daniel is one of those players and the others who would fit that category are Thomas Marchese, Tom Dwan, Annette Obrestad, Gavin Smith and Tony G.The rest of the roster are all pretty solid tourney players so we'll see. One category I wish they had added was a rookie category as there are some amazing players playing their first WSOP...Good Luck everyone! Link to post Share on other sites
