**WSOP FANTASY LEAGUE 2017 - SWEAT THREAD** - Page 3 - Two Plus Two Pokercast

The thing I love with Leah is he wants it so bad, he's going to grind the hell out of the summer. They've only just started Event #4 (the first of which was the employee event), and Leah has been in 3 of them. Busted the tag team event, busted the shootout, jumps in the $1500 O/8.

If he bust out events that quickly all summer, I'm okay with it

My team when I look into 25k draft:

Adam Owen 26
Brock Parker 1
Marco Johnson 58
Chris George 1
Scott Seiver 27
Dzmitry Urbanovich 5

Doesn't look that promising, but I don't think it says a lot about your team. There are just 8 teams participating, so that declares imo why a lot of promising players are drafted for a low price or not drafted at all. Look at Kihara for example, always playing a bunch of tournaments with lot of cashes, Brock Parker said he will play a full schedule this year and then Felipe Ramos who will be the golden pick this year :-P...

Wow -- a uniqueness score of 19. At least I'll win something -- lowest uniqueness score (maybe). Have fun everyone!! I still have two horses alive in Event #3!

He built a quick early stack in the Colossus, although I'm not sure that's the best tourney on a points-per-hour basis for those of us who picked him. But at least he probably won't be busting early. And if he runs up a big stack in the first flight, he's off from Colossus until Monday afternoon. So he might jump in at least the triple draw, assuming he's not playing the $100k.

That means his bracelet wins are worth more, right? Right?

I tried to have some balance:

* 2 players from UK plus another Euro, 2 Asian-Americans
* One female
* Doyle, Mike the Mouth, and Miami John for some old school flavor

Liv and Igor win the tag. I wonder how the new points system handles that.

Anyone got any ideas where I can get a more complete POY list than this?

https://www.wsop.com/players/poy/2017/

It only seems to show the top 100 :/

I'd assume they'll be using their own formula on there, not the official WSOP one.

Fading a lot of commonly picked players in One Drop *gulp*

At least I got cashes from Marco & Benny in O8.

Got myself a cash in the O8.

Pretty sick bust hand. I has the AQ43 on Q53dd with nut diamond draw and get scooped by A277. Now we know a 5 is bad, but I wasn't too worried about busting after getting it in on the 7 turn.

Not looking like to bright a summer for me. One of my top picks not playing - big research failure 😔

Seiver, Hellmuth, Carrel are the main fades in One Drop.
