Step 1) After Day 3 (Thursday night) you look at the list of chip counts for all players remaining in the WSOP Main Event. There should be over 600 names

Step 2) Make a list of the players you like based on chip counts and who the player is.

Step 3) Log into this thread in the Pokercast forum just prior to noon PST on Friday.

Step 4) When it's your turn to pick a player for your team, you type one of the names from your list into the thread

Step 5) Continue to do this every time it is your turn to draft until your team is complete. 5 or 6 rounds depending on how many entrants we get.

Step 6) Cheer for the players on your team to last as long as possible in the main event.

Step 7) Cheer every time a player on one of the other teams busts out.

Step 8) Profit??

Sounds like a fun sweat - I'll be in

Step 4: probably understood by 97.3% of the poolers, but we should specify "...type a name from your list that hasn't been picked yet".

Make that 100%
07-08-2014 , 08:22 PM
I'm in.

+1 sigh

Maybe someone should run one for the Europeans to play!!

NB - Not Me!

Still a few spots left for this
07-09-2014 , 04:18 PM
I will take a spot if there are not enough takers.

I won't be around for the draft and my team will be auto selected, but if people want the prize pool juicing up then I'm game.

Give precedence to anyone else who wants to play though...

I may have a conflict when I have to drive to work from home (15 minutes), but I'll try to schedule it between my long break in drafting. I will also have my top 30 or so players picked out and ordered, so if someone would auto draft for me off of it when I am gone, that would be amazing.

Just got my baseball schedule for the weekend: no game on Friday so I'm in. Money to JD reserves our spot?

Edit: PayPal money sent.

Will leave registration open until noon tomorrow for people who can live draft. From there, if there are still spots, I will fill them with people who want to auto-draft a team based on next highest chip counts remaining.

If we get interest beyond 16 people, we can also do 20 teams with 5 rounds = 100 players instead of 16X6 = 96.
07-09-2014 , 09:25 PM
So when do I need to figure out this paying thing to reserve my spot?
07-10-2014 , 01:48 AM
I've paid.
07-10-2014 , 10:02 AM
I wonder who the #1 pick will be

Yeah, I'm the same boat. Money shipped, just waiting for either confirmation that I'm in or a refund that I'm out.

I assume I sent my money to the right person: hmborovetz@mccarran.com or something like that.
