One Drop Fantasy Draft

So last time there was the One Drop event, my friend and I did a little 1 v 1 fantasy draft where we picked 5 players each, I think and ranked the finishing spots. We each put up $50.

Was curious if anyone else on LP did this, or wanted to do a little fun LP draft together - we could figure out the specifics and draft it in the thread or via skype or something - once we figure out everyone who is playing.

We could do it for fun and bragging rights or put up a few dollars each that would allow for max participation. I imagine we could find some method of transfer or with an escrow that would be agreeable to everybody.

I'm in for some smallish amount. The germans will kill it!

ah - well when we get the list, i think we could do it. i dont care about the buy in, like i said, it could be fun or something small.

Daut - do you have any interest? would i be out of line to ask for you input in ranking the finishes or setting something up?

sorry about the list. my friend sent it to me and i posted link here without looking.

In so far:

Chris
Neilly
Drone
Napoleono
Balzamon

not that anyone knows me here, but I am in, shipping money in advance to anyone known here is no problem.

I got a small piece of Greg Merson at no mark-up, so I'm sure he's playing it as well.

cosmo play with us. same with you Daut.

I'm in if the the escrower can accept chase or even somehow Bovada (USA)

one reason i was hoping daut would play is i imagine he would have good escrow ideas. i can think of something

Where does Selbst get her money?

Also no Durrr?

Edit: Nvm about selbst, looks like shes got a bunch of tourny wins. I just remember seeing her on TV awhile ago and she seemed kind of terrible. Might of just been a bad impression.

lol

Yea shes super good

Acting like a donk on TV is probably +EV overall.

dem germans

only in if funds are acr and not gambling hard - ill do a cheap one - need escrower to hold acr tho or pick up a western union

hey, so how should we do the draft? through the thread? do we all exchange skypes?

for fun or for money. i dont keep money on US poker sites, i dont know what you all have in mind.

its getting close though, so we should probably figure out format, etc

I never quite understood how these fantasy draft works.

Can someone please explain the rules?

I might join for a small amount as well

she certainly wasnt playing bad on purpose

I've been sick sick raped by Selbst in a WSOP 10k HU event in the past. I've never felt so violated. She has some skillz imo.

oops, forgot to come back to the thread.

anyway, not sure exactly how to rank, but here are the top guys imo in mostly no particular order:
ivey, ike, polk, cates, gruissem, ragen (heineker), colman, max altergott, antonio, dan smith, seiver, vogelsang, selbst, reinkemeir.

and i guess trickett would be my #15 to round out top 15.


gun to my head, my top 5: ike, ivey, gruissem, polk, cates (antonio 6th, just fucking love his game). but i dunno, i tend to favor HU beasts in mtts
