I would have voted for one thread, but it's kickboys show and what is done is done. It will all be fine, everyone seems to be finding the thread.

Not so sure about Farha as a pick, he is actually rather Fishy, but if he gets hot you might have a horse.

I'm not so sure about this pick either, theres somethign about this guys game I don't like, can't pinpoint it exactly, but I think he was running way above the curve last year, I can't imagine him doing as well as he did last year, of course I could be completely wrong to and he might turn out to be a great pick.

You might just be right, I played with him the other day at the Bellagio in a 10-20 no limit game and he certainly had his game face on, lost about 4k in first 10 minutes making moves on the wrong guys at the wrong time, but he has a dangerous playing style, especially for tournaments and he definitely has something to prove and will probably spend his life savings playing every event.

I'm glad to see you guys are all falling apart in the middle rounds, I have enough players left on my list to go 15 rounds.

I was quite confused about his fishy manners these days,
but I couldn't resist inviting him to join my team.

My thoughts about him went exactly as you pointed it out.

I'll take Erik Lindgren.

Powda's up.

Actually, he has always been considered a high limit fish, the Top pro's just compliment him and don't say anything bad about him because he brings to much action to the game. He's the kind of player "You love to Hate", either he's donating large or putting some really nasty beats on you but you have to love his action in the long run.

ESPN made him look really good that year against Moneymaker, and he was probably playing good too. The irony is that if he was playing like Sammy would normally play when heads-up with Moneymaker he would have won the WSOP that year.

A key hand came up where Moneymaker was bluffing and Sammy played his hand strangely and he didn't trust his read on the river and folded. The normal Sammy would have bet the hand completely different and wouldn't have ever folded in that spot. Here is the bluff I'm talking about:

Thankyou for posting the link, I had seen that bluff before and was completely baffled.

Anyway, I decided to arrange a team of players who by no means can be boring. Of course I'd have liked to pick Negreanu and Texas Dolly, and I had an eye on Erik Lingren, too - but you can't get everything, can you?

4 yet to be chosen, right?

I think Kickboy had it setup for 8 rounds, but I'm game for 10 rounds if everyone else is and as long as it doesn't screw up his scoring system.

I admittedly don't know crapola about Fantasy Sports Leagues.

[kickboy]

I am game for 10. The main reason i said 8 rounds was because i thought it would take longer than it has been taking and the WSOP Event number 1 is 2 weeks away.

(Chsallstar picked D' Agostino because he has a man crush on him, He met him in The U.S. Poker championship hit it off well hate lunch together)

(I picked Bonomo because like you said, He will drop his last dollar into these tournies to prove himself. Hell, if i played in every event I mite cash atleast 2 or 3 times)

But yea we can definatly go to 10 rounds since it is going smoothly

[PoWdA]

Ack... I am sooo hungover.....


Anyway, my hungover pick will be


Dario Minieri


From what I have seen the guy has game, I don't care how gay or ridiculous to where in Vegas in June his scarf is.

[kickboy]

I was considerign taking him especially since most of my picks so far have been internet players.

I was having a hard time typing "Chad Brown" there. I really don't think he'll cash 9 times this year like he did last year, but I'll be happy if he can pull 4-5 out.
