Borrowing liberally from the 2+2 PokerCast contest, I'm going to try and set up a fantasy WSOP contest here in NVG.


RULES:

1. Entry fee is $25, payable via PayPal to my email address (Kevmath@gmail.com) When using PayPal, be sure to send the money as a gift. For those who want to send money on Stars, If someone in the thread wants to handle that, let me know.

For those who want to pay on PokerStars: Frank Op de Woerd (webjoker on Twitter/2+2) will assist with those details. You can send the $ to his Stars account (schaap83)(Netherlands).

2. At least 10 entries needed for the contest to take place. Entry deadline is Monday May 28th at 11:59am PT (2:59pm ET).

3. Point system will be based on the WSOP Player of the Year criteria. All WSOP Vegas events, except for the Casino Employees, Seniors and Ladies events will count for the purposes of this contest. If an entry selects a player that makes the "October 9", points will be based on their chip count upon reaching the final table.

4. Payouts TBD based on number of entries.

5. Players will PM me their selections from the following categories:

Team name:

Re: "Unofficial" 2012 NVG WSOP Fantasy League

Will this be a draft or just an open selection system?

When I'm referring to Full Tilt Poker pros, I mean players formerly sponsored by FTP.

Rosie, people who relocated from the US are considered US players.

Re: "Unofficial" 2012 NVG WSOP Fantasy League

To add to the is this a draft or open selection question, Im assuming each criteria is the only one, like if a player qualifies for more then one category can you pick them still?

I.e. choosing a US player as your random player even though there is a US player category?

Same thing as the Pokercast league? I'm in if it is the same.

I'll be shipping the money via paypal if we have enough players.
