I ask for input on this every year for our WSOP preview show.

Last year we saw the likes of Elky, Eugene Katchalov, Ben Lamb, Sam Stein, Jason Somerville, Jake Cody, Allen Bari, Brian Rast, John Monnette, Andy Frankenberger, Nick Binger, Andre Akkari and Fabrice Soulier were among those to pop their bracelet cherry

Every year, the list of those looking to add their own first WSOP title to their resumes is filled with top names.

The common formula when choosing seems to be
1) Planning on playing many events
2) Playing events with smaller fields (mixed games, higher buy-ins)
3) Is a decent player who runs good

Here are a starter list with a few obvious ones but would love to hear who else people think 'this is their year'

1) Mike Binger
2) Justin Bonomo
3) Chad Brown
4) Ike Haxton
5) Shaun Deeb
6) Tom Dwan
7) Matt Glantz
8) Faraz Jaka
9) Galen Hall
10) David Sands
11) Yevgeniy Timoshenko
12) Chris Moorman
13) Mickey Petersen
14) Steve O'Dwyer
15) Sam Trickett
16) Shannon Shorr
17) Jimmy Fricke
18) Tony G
19) Allen Kessler
20) George Lind

And my annual 'token Canadians'
21) Shawn Buchanan
22) Sorel Mizzi
23) Mike Watson
24) Mike McDonald
25) Terrence Chan

thanks for your input...

REMINDER:FIRST BRACELET ONLY, plz limit 'Phil Hellmuth' type replies

I don't claim to see the future but I'd bet there's a bracelet with Hal Lubarsky's name on it, get it while it's hot

Shawn Buchanan is definitely going to win a bracelet. Definitely one of the best tourney players in the world. Extremely underated. The thing about Shawn is that he can just as easily ship a bracelet in one of the 1500s as in the 10ks. Since he plays them both. Probably the best without a bracelet!

Also gotta support fellow Stanford alum Galen Hall. I mean hes won over 3 Million dollars since last January in tournies. Hes one of pokers biggest names after 1.5 years. I definitely see him winning one of the 10ks.
