Grimstar30

Hello everyone,

So only 3 days until the SPT and the WSOP Main event! I will run 2 polls. I can not do the SPT one yet as there is still one more place to fill.

So here are the November Nine, vote for whom you think will win and add a reason why if you would like to.

Thanks, have a good day.

Ive voted for Phil Ivey just because I love him, I know it will be toguh with his chip stack but if anyone can do it he can

This needs to be kept up the top of the forum lol... I voted for Eric Buchman, I think he is playing good poker has lots of chips and never seemed in danger in the ME so far.

Phil ivey no question! it does not matter how many chips he has! he always has the ability to get out of a tight spot!

would help if i new the chip stack's, anyone know

Chip count:

Darvin Moon  58,930,000   
Eric Buchman  34,800,000  
Steven Begleiter  29,885,000  
Jeff Shulman  19,580,000  
Joseph Cada  13,215,000  
Kevin Schaffel  12,390,000  
Phil Ivey  9,765,000  
Antoine Saout  9,500,000  
James Akenhead  6,800,000

I've got to go for Darvin Moon.  Even though he is an amateur and he says he is not having any coaching in the time leading up to the final table, I can't see him blasting off such a big chip lead.  The other players know how good Ivey is and will therefore be very cautious when entering in pots against him and I'll think he'll find it hard to get the double-ups he needs to challenge for the win.

he is one of the players who cant win imo, not good enough and wont continue to run like god

Jeff Shulman is my dark horse but I'm also expecting good things early on from James and Phil - they won't be afraid to go bust chasing the big prize whereas some of the amateurs (despite having over $1 million to their name already) will be looking to ladder and win as much as possible! It's going to be exciting but if you're making me pick, I'm going for the Shulman family WSOP and WSOPE double...

Likewise plus he was really really unlucky not to win a bracelet in an event last year with probably the mother of all badbeats to finish runner up.
I can't remember the hands but I have a feeling Tikay or SkyDave will.

He's had a great year and if anyone deserves it for flying our flag, he does imo. Will there be justice I wonder!

Good luck to the lad I'm sure there will be many of us rooting for him!

James Akenhead.

Would be good for a brit to take down the ME, even though he's a little short stacked.

It's a bit strange with this final table in November lark though. I mean you're there at the ME and you've played well enough to make the final table, your confidence is high and you're in the zone. Then it stops and you come back a couple of months later. Who knows what will have happened to an individuals game in that time. A few bad beats can seriously knock your confidence.

Best of luck to them all though.

I will vote for someone else. No way will any of these players win, there is always some lucky so and so to come out of the pack at this tourny. How many this year??? 7000

Come on Webby, Jaime Gold wasn't "Good Enough" but his chip lead saw him through to the biggest payday in WSOP history. Do I want him to win?? No i'd like a PRO to get it, Do I think He Will?? No But he definatly COULD !!

The best I think there will be is an audio stream from BluffMagazine.com. I listened last year and while it was like listening to the FA Cup on the radio (would rather be watching, etc), it was actually a pretty fun way of following it. 

I am 99% certain there won't be any streams because ESPN spend so much money getting the rights.

It was a $1,500 NLHE bracelet event I think, maybe a $2k. Got HU vs a kid called Blair Hinkle (his brother Grant won a bracelet in the same year). Akenhead was outclassing the kid heads-up, and Hinkle tried a big pre-flop with T4o vs Akenhead's AK. A lot of times Akenhead has a weaker hand there and can fold, this time he's obviously got the goods so calls.

Flop T-T-4, turn T just to really rub it in.

Sickening beat, but proof (for anyone who actually still needed it) that Akenhead has pedigree and class when it comes to monster field MTTs.

BANDICOOT

My vote goes to James Akenhead, a quality player. Anything can happen on the ft as we all know even if you do go in as the short stack

Jeff Shulman for me, a real dark horse!
