Game Of Gold puzzle ($1000 prize for correct answer)

Game Of Gold puzzle ($1000 prize for correct answer)

I'm finding it very difficult to give away money!
Why? I have no idea.
One thought: maybe winning the money is too easy!
So, here's one that's difficult.
Put these 16 Game Of Gold participants in their correct finishing order.
That is, how they will finish in my currently running competition (see my other thread here or my thread on Blogs And Goals).
Now it's not so easy! Not like putting 16 random items in order because we know the skill level of these 16 but still not easy.
If any players tie you can have them in either order.
Payment is by PokerStars (if you have an account) or by Amazon Gift Certificate.
Entry price: $0
Entries close: Christmas (midnight on Dec. 24/25).
Why I do this: to make my competitions more fun. Entertainment value will be much more than the (possible) $1000 loss.

The Game Of Thrones entrants:

Daniel Negreanu
Jason Koon
Fedor Holz
Kevin Martin
Kyna England
Josh Arieh
Daniel Cates
Lukas Robinson
Nikita Luther
Charlie Carrel
Johan “YoH ViraL”Guilbert
Olga Iermolcheva
David Williams
Andy Tsai
Michael Soyza
Maria Ho

On 2nd thought, why not make the charity random as well.
I'll get random.org to pick a charity for you. Remember, you can change it if you like.


All 11 entries here are now entered into the ODB25K pool.
Feel free to make any changers you like (player or charity).
If you now have 2 entries, your 2nd charity must be different from the 1st.
You have til May 19th to make changes.



Thanks again for letting me switch you guys over to the ODB25 pool since you all had no chance of winning.
Now that the WSOP is over, let's see how the results would have looked.
As you know (I don't think you knew!) the rankings were based on cashes in 35 different poker games. The main thing was to cash in as many games as possible.
Here are the results:

1) Daniel Negreanu (7 games)
2) Maria Ho (5 games)
3) David Williams (4 games)
4) Josh Arieh (2 games)
5) Johan Guilbert (1 game for 300K)
the rest had either 1 game or 0 games but less than 300K

So nobody would have won because nobody took Daniel Negreanu as #1 (except me, but that's as far as I went because I had Arieh at #2).
