    Starting in January of 2006, over a 30-day stretch I played in 96 $22 180 SNG tournaments. My best five finishes were 1, 1, 1, 3, and 4. This equates to TLB point counts of:

    309.44
    309.44
    309.44
    178.65
    154.72
    _______

    1,261.69

    This is pretty close to the top score posted by GB2005 in the December contest of 1,599.41.

    So when it comes time to make your picks, think of Underdog34.

    PS: Other players, please feel free to add your shameless self promotion in this thread so the team captains have a one-shop stop for getting info on potential picks.

    I'll be providing all captains with the 2006 performance of each draftee candidate (from thepokerdb) + combine tourney results for their consideration in their drafting. In that thread (I'll probably get it out this wknd), feel free to tack on any self promotion, too!

    Unfortunately, pokerdb doesn't track 180 SNGs. www.tournamentreporter.com does though. By the way, on stars, I'm Underdog1969. I'm just desperately trying not to be picked last here...

    You guys have no worries about being picked last, I have had that spot reserved since the beginning of this.

    My numbers arent nearly as good as Mr. Underdogs....so no need to fear, I will go after you. I dont need to self-promote, because the numbers speak for themselves (*cough*). But I will be a great team player and I will do what my captain needs me to do in order to make out team successful. Also I have never pushed my bankroll, but for the month of April I am ready to make that effort.

    Pick Rae and You'll be OK

    I am waiting for Sippin_Criss or anyone else to crack "Pick Rae and Ur Gae"

    But no I didnt, however I am thinking about giving my son the offical rights to use it. Also how average of a player do u have to be that you need a slogan to get picked.

    Just take 2nd in the tournament on saturday and you might get drafted a lot higher. Reason I said 2nd is because it's obvious who is going to win.

    My stats suck.
    I've never made a final table.
    I have more money in the bank than any of the people saying "pick me."

    ...that's my shameful promotion. LoL

    Money in the bank does not equal TLB points. So your post was pointful
