DanielNegreanu 141 Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 10k buy in events and up are worth double points and the point system is designed in such a way that mixed game specialists are very valuable. Here are the 11 teams along with what they went for in the auction. Each team was given 200 to spend on their team and Andy Bloch spent 102 on Ivey:Howard LedererD. Negreanu--80C. Ferguson--63D.

Habib--3Nam Le--13 I've also made side bets against Erick and Barry G's team. My strategy was to lock up a solid top 4 and I ended up getting 4 guys from my top 10. I then figured I could fill out the rest of my team with decent players. Pat Pezzin is an excellent sleeper pick. He is going to play ALL of the events and he'll be in the mixed game events. He's a steal even though these guys wouldn't know that. He will be in the 50K tomorrow. David Benyamine, Scotty Nguyen, John Juanda, and Jason Mercier will all be playing tons of tournament. I made sure to talk to Benyamine about his schedule and he plans on playing a decent schedule of events. That's so important when filling out a team. There wasn't much left in terms of mixed game players at the end, so I went with two top notch NLH guys in Vivek Rajkumar and Tom Marchese. I expect both guys to play regularly... Timoshenko is another in the same mold, a NLH guy, but he's just really good. I like my team... Link to post Share on other sites

Mercury69 3 Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Antonius for $4? That's pretty good value...I think.Timoshenko for $3 is pretty good, too...GL, have fun!!! Jason Mercier will probably do real well for you, even at $49, which is probably par value. Link to post Share on other sites
