Woohoo good old Justin got me off the starting block :)
Must admit I am getting quite frustrated in the Stakers game. I have done a bit of homework and picked a "team" and worked out who is there and games they are likely to play but the guys I picked keep doing well in other games :(
Is there any way of finding out who might be playing UKIPT Marbella? I would assume a lot of the regulars will be in Vegas.

Didn"t you ask a similar question last year and Carl, unbelievably, revealed that he messages the players to get tips for our league? I suggest you adopt a similar approach. Here"s a few to get you started: @phil_hellmuth @MagicAntonio @JasonMercier @Liv_Boeree. Let us know how you get on.

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?

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.

Neymar is in town for the WSOP again this year. Some shots of him playing a Main Event satellite with countrymen Akkari and Ramos. Somehow, Danzer has got mixed up in it too. The skinflints!

Event 10: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em 6-Handed
Runners 1477Paid 222Final Table 6
Player Position Points Fedor Holz 18 1 Mike Watson 35 1 Dan Kelly 142 1 Michael Mizrachi 120 1

The tournament has reached the final table of six, which includes Pierre Neuville from last year"s November Nine. None of our players got that far, Fedor Holz dropping in 18th place.
There are some excellent names on the final, Javier Garcirreynaldos (from Spain), for one. There has been substantial emigration from Ireland to Spain at various times in the last 500 years. Surely there was a time during that period when Mr Reynolds and Senorita Garcia got together and ended up constructing this monstrosity of a name. Also in the final six are Tim Cha and my new favourite, Lutz Klinkhammer. Honestly, does the WSOP hold a names committee before each Series to come up with the oddest names it can get away with?
Vinny Pahuja made his fourth cash from the ten tournaments so far this year in this event. Not too bad. In fact, he wouldn"t have played them all - remember he made the final table of #4. Dan Kelly and Michael Mizrachi both made their third cash. How come? They both cashed in #1, the casino employees event. I had overlooked this one as I hadn"t expected that real pro players would be taking part, so I"ll need to go back and add in the points for it. Mizrachi also cashed the Colossus. Incidentally, they have both gone on to cash for a fourth time in #12 PLO, but we"ll come to that in due course.
David Vamplew, David Benefield and Shawn Quint (Yes!) also racked up their third cash of this year in #10.

TightEnd:
Staker event 16 WSOP #16 2-7 Lowball Championship starts tonight. $10,000 championship event
A reminder stakes need to be in for 9pm
Last year Phil Galfond beat Nick Schulman to the bracelet in an event with just 77 entries.
The big man with the bat is fearing some damage to his bank balance with this one!

STAKER - WSOP #9 $10,000 Heads Up No Limit Hold'em Championship
Staker Staked Winnings Profit Glenn Laming £6960 £49599 £42639 Charlie Press £6960 £24756 £17796 Nick Wright £6960 £18632 £11672 Bill Sheppard £6690 £12421 £5731 Barrie Cullen £6960 £12421 £5461 Juan De Diego £6960 £8560 £1600 Karen Mead £6960 £2465 £-4495
Congrats to Glenn Laming, who made a major advance on the Staker leaderboard by putting more than half his stake on Olivier Busquet, who finished 4th. Others who cashed in the event did so mainly courtesy of Busquet, though most risked a lesser proportion of their investment on the one player.
Karen had a return due to her investment in Esfandiari, but didn"t make an overall profit on the event as he accounted for a relatively small proportion of her total stake in the tournament.
