First time i have played this and I did find it fun but I think I might have missed a trick somewhere.
How do you..
a) Know who is going to be there first of all? and
b) Know which players are going to play tournaments in volume?
Were Philip Gruissem or Ana Marquez even there?

Answer at a short..
A) I look at previous last few years at the top cashes.. Chidwick, Mercier, Danzer etc etc so presume they are going to put a full schedule.. I also message them and politely ask them if they will be playing much. I also ask if they know of a good pick, Chidwick informed me to pick Dylan Linde as he will play most events as they are room sharing. he also cashed on numerous occasions in previous years.
B) Hope the above answers..
Pass cant seem to remember seeing Marquez play or Philip

You message them! And ask for tips for the ASAP Fantasy League!!! :o
Well, it seems to be working. Can"t wait next year when Chidwick gets twenty-five messages asking for tips, now that you have revealed your secret. Maybe I"ll message Mercier and Hellmuth while I"m at it.
And what are Chidwick and Linde doing sharing - trying to save a bit of money on hotel bills? It must be a right barrel of laughs once those two get together.

HaHa.. Yes Facebook is my friend.
Although that Greg Merson guy never answered my question!! how dare he.
Ole Schemion was my pick last year and was very upset with his volume.. seems he did the same this year and dragged himself to Vegas for the last few events.. He didnt answer my question either, does he not understand the importance of letting his faithful supporters down!!
Out of all the replies i must admit that Chidwick was most helpful and even seemed genuine in his interest in the faith people had in him.
Others where less than chatty.. lol

You should invite your mate Steve to pop into the WCOAP if he"s around. He would even be eligible to play one or two of the tournaments, or the team event.

He probably wouldnt as he would obv look at Hendon Mob stats for APAT.. Certain John Murray topping the list for most cashes would scare him off..

Top 1000 get paid, or more important for us get a point.. My prediction will be that only 3 of our players left in will make top 1000.
Predictions?

So, we have 38 players out of 4,389 starting Day 2, and you reckon we"ll get three into the top 1,000.
Actually, you"re probably about right.
