    Lets see if this will be fun.

    I will take any bets from $100 to $10,000 on my list of 10 players to win a WSOP Bracelet for the 2008 World Series of Poker Vs. your list of 10 players.

    If there is a tie, It's no action.

    You can't have a player from my list.

    You MUST post your bet with me on UB to the name Westtexasman , First name is Shawn.

    You must post your list on here and be posted by the time the WSOP starts along with user name and first name also, So I can pay you.

    Here is my list....

    Johnny Chan

    Allen Cunningham

    Ted Forrest

    Barry Greenstien

    Phil Hellmuth

    Phil Ivey

    John Juanda

    Mike Matusow

    Daniel Negreanu

    Erik Seidel

    I am doing this to keep it fun and exciting as i will be trying for my own. Please don't post unless you are making a list and posting up.

    if you make it where only holdem events count I will make my list and bet the max of 10k.

    Obviously the best chance any player has of winning a bracelet is in the random events because the fields will be tiny etc, and your players are the best of the people who play everything.

    wow, real risky wager here shawn. you get to select your entire team first, and we can't make any repeat bets? are you sure you dont want to make it a $50k bet!?!?

    i'd do this if it was only no limit holdem events, or if i put up like 7k to your 10k.

    Lol at all the negative trash spewing.

    He made his list, he offered a bet. I can easily tell you that I could think of 10 people not on his list that I would take.

    Last year when several of you guys made a prop bet and picked 10 people for a last longer in the main event I entered after 6 other guys had already picked their ten selections. Granted, this was for one tournament, but good God, your telling me you think he has that much the best of it?

    There are only two deuce to seven events and one razz out of 54 tournaments. Is this really an issue?

    I will bet you 1K Shawn

    My picks are:

    Scott Clements

    Bill Edler

    Tom Schneider

    David Pham

    Jonathon Little

    Randall Holland

    Carlos Mortenson

    John Phan

    Scotty Nguyen

    Michael Binger

    Brsavage has a decent list but i still don't like his chances. The non-hold'em events are going to be crucial.

    He was the one pick I was trying to squeeze in, but couldn't.

    All of my picks are centered around guys that I know will be playing a ton of events, and I honestly like my squad over Shawn's.

    fun bet shawn, I am playing all of the NLHE events at the WSOP and would be willing to make a wager on NLHE action only.

    I will take on anyone at a 3 pt contest in Vegas for 100 shots up to 5k. Will shoot against anyone who did not play D-1 or professional basketball. Last time I tried this I almost had a big wager against ex-Kentucky player Patrick Sparks

    haha you guys act like hes got every good mixgame player on earth.....

    I dont even follow the circuit or big game that much but i can still think of some eligable canidates
    Chau Giang, Harmen, Ari, Doyle/Todd Brunson, Alai, Billy Baxter, Huck Seed, ZeeJustin, Deeb, Bloch, David Singer.... seems like its a crap shoot to legitimately figure out who has the best of it in any of these bets

    Ok, I have 2 victums so far, This is all about having fun and something to track while I am out west. If you don't wanna bet against it, don't, if you do, feel free. I am not going to do no limit only , because I want to be rooting for every wsop event. I made it cheap as $100 and for that amount it's super entertainment value. I knew there would be lots of "hate" postings, some people just can't help themselves, this is suppose to be fun and entertaining.

    Keep it fun
    Shawn
