The title makes me think this is some sort of trick question or riddle

Fwiw I think its Dan Smith first and Greg Merson second, but some of the logic ITT is interesting. Its almost as if Gregy went to all the stops and had some decent scores but nothing amazing he would be given more credit...

Must be a typo. Should it read 2012th tournament player of 2012? It's still not me but maybe I'll have a chance in the future.

King Dan. I think it's the best tournament year ever, let alone 2012.

It doesn't seem logical to campaign for Trickett based on 2nd place in One Drop given that the guy who won it is also there.

well antonio's year > trickett's and dan's>antonio's. But trickett did much better in one drop then dan, so trickett>dan (and dan>antonio!). Therefore, Sam Trickett is your 2012 player of the year 2012.

Ok, I see what you are thinking but how can you explain Antonio>Trickett, since Antonio was the one that won one drop?

Gave my vote to Greg Merson,
That QJ vs Q10 hand 3 handed main event final table is just pure skill,
He never lost his composure after AK>KK hand and shipped the entire thing anyway.

Think Smith deserves it but it's closer than many say just because Mersons WSOP feat was so incredible.Also Raymer deserves a nomination and "I want million" deserves an honourable mention too.

A very good year for all of them. I don't recall a year where that many did so well in multiple tourneys.

Came into this thread planning to say "Dan Smith AINEC" and now I feel pretty good about that. It's pretty difficult to consider anyone else.
