It’s time for another awesome FCP freeroll pool! What’s the occasion? Daniel Negreanu will be crowning his protégé next Sunday 4/30/06. The protégé final table kicks off at 12:00 PM EST and can only be viewed live here at fullcontactpoker.com.

Instructions:
The object of the game is very simple. Pick the final table players in the order that you think they will finish from #1 - #10.

Example:
1=weakdraw0
2=The Jest
3=Chiefclint0
4=mrs_c
5=Fidler0
6=Jerry Carmichael
7=Loismustdi10
8=bigcountry
9=shahmat0
10=JimmyHerrera

The higher you rank the player, the more points that player is eligible to get. You’ll multiply your players rank with the point total for their finish.

Place Point Value:
1st=10
2nd=9
3rd=8
4th=7
5th=6
6th=5
7th=4
8th=3
9th=2
10th=1

So for example, if chiefclint0, your third ranked player, comes in 5th place, you’ll get 48 points from his finish (8x6=48)

For tie breaker purposes, you should also include a guess at what you think the final hand of the main event will be. You must choose from the following categories:

A. Ace high or worse
B. One Pair
C. Two pair
D. Three of a kind
E. A straight
F. A flush
G. A full house or better


The top three point holders will be eligible for prizes.

1st place will play in a NLHE heads up match at fullcontactpoker.com against the newly crowned protégé for a winner take all $1,000 grand prize.

Whoa, slow down there Matt, 5th place, come on, lol.

I got you going out 7th.

Now this is something I would like to see the results for. Rather than the "click on who will win it" vote. Can't wait for tomorrow, its going to be a blast no matter which way it goes!

Looking forward to watching...gl all players

When wil the winners of the pool be posted???

It'll take a few days, Matt who will be doing it has been very busy with the Protege weekend and there are a few hundred entries to go through.
