25K Fantasy/ODB pool now open. Computer picks available. Free entry/winnings go to charity
OK, here we go.
Let's adopt David Kluchman's (from BARGE) idea for going over the 200 limit. You just play shorthanded rather than being eliminated.
The other rules 3 are still in effect (9th pick must be unpicked by 25K Fantasy, 10th pick must be unpicked by both 25K Fantasy & ODB, all 10 must cash).
I've come up with a computer generated pick for those who are too lazy to do all that work. Just tell us your charity and the computer does the rest.
I've allowed the computer to do my entry (because I have until May 19th to change it!). Here's what the computer came up with for me:
#1 - Brian Barker
#2 - Cherish Andrews
#3 - Andrew Kelsall
#4 - Richard Solomon
#5 - Stephen Song
#6 - Joe Cada
#7 - Sean Winter
#8 - Jesse Lonis
BONUS: Nikko Laochua
2nd BONUS: James Tomblin
CHARITY: Doctors Without Borders
Well, there it is, our 1st entry. Doesn't look too bad. I'm sure I'll be tinkering with it though before the 19th.
So, let's get those entries in. Either computer generated or something you think up yourself.
Oh right, you might want the rules (for those doing their own picks).
Here they are.
BTW, that final table from Florida that will run May 29th in Vegas does not count. That series ran in Florida not Vegas and it was long before the WSOP started.
So, the computer giving me Jesse Lonis does me no favours.

It looks like the computer gave you a dud. Phillip Hui as the BONUS player.
The BONUS player has to be someone that isn't going to be selected at the 25K Fantasy pool.
You can get rid of him or just cross your fingers and hope that the people at the 25K Fantasy forget about him.
