In order to quell this Jingoistic fervour, may be we should enter a British and Irish Lions team! That should be easy to pick!! ;)

But then again looking at Steve"s results table...... may be not! :D

From what I recall clearly from last year, the teams who excelled at this event had one thing in common. Incredible team spirit. There were lots of strong individuals dotted throughout most of the teams, but when it came down to it the Irish, Scots and Germans supported each other more passionately than the other teams did. Who knows, it might be a significant drawback to have four individual champions on your team, if they don"t gel. What a great and interesting tournament this will be...

FYP
The team spirit thing is a key factor in this event though. Those teams that shone through, clearly had a togetherness over the weekend. They also had a skilled and talented team captain, who was able to gel the team members together to get the most out of them, by utilising not only the team captains poker knowledge and skills, but also maximising the skills of their team.
I"ll leave the punchline open........................
