Okay here's the contest folks. I am giving $100 to whoever guesses my final place at the WSOP. I imagine there will be around 6000 - 6600 entrants.
Yes I am an affiliate so I am immediatly labeled a donk
Here's my past history lately. My last three live tournaments at www.RockfordCharitableGames.com I have taken 9th, 4th, and 1st respectively. These are $150 multi's with around 70 players or so.
The last two weeks in the ParadiseIpods tourney I have taken 2nd and 1st out of around 100+ players. (yes I know it's a freeroll)
Last week I deposited $200 at Paradise and flipped it to $2000 when I cashed out today. (Stephen can probably confirm this)
Anyhow, I am by no means as good as the pro's you see on T.V., I'll admit that but I do know how to play tournament poker and I do MUCH better in tournies than cash games.
My thoughts on the WSOP are this. The first couple days I need to slowly build my stack and not get into frequent situation where I am going to have to make tough decisions. At the same time I am not going to lay down the best hand because I think I'm up against a draw. To win the WSOP you have to play premium hands, catch flops, and win coin flips. Everyone knows that. So I think if I can do all those I have a shot at getting into the money. :P
Anyways, it's free money so that should be enough to get a guess out of you. Here are the rules; below simply place your guess at what place I will finish and the closest wins a hundred bucks. This thread will be locked as soon as the tourney starts.
Don't worry I won't be offended when you guess 6599............you just won't win any money. Likewise if you guess #1.......you probably won't make any money either.
