Will Daniel Negraneau run deep (he's not been doing well this year @ wsop)? Probably not...
Can Michael Mizrachi make it to the final table again? Who knows..he is good
Will Matt Afleck not take another HUGH bad beat?? He does get emotional about this stuff
Can Jonathan Duhamel repeat??? Magic 8 Ball says "highly unlikely"

:D

I think Phil Hellmith is going to make a great WSOP. He's making a very solid WSOP this year, he already ended up in 2nd place 3 times. I think Main Event is going to be his time.

I know that Daniel Negranu was trying to decide between day 1c or 1d. My guess is a lot of them aren't planning on playing their day 1 until later and probably are not officially registered.

They should make it a rebuy. Bust out on day one?, rebuy for the last day.

FWIW they do that in a bunch of tournies already, but it's termed a re-entry not a rebuy to spare confusion :)

I reckon that the November 9 will be filled with people who turn pro in August and by that definition will be filled with 9 professionals.

I know you were not saying this about the WSOP, Pascal but for those who get confused easily, he is not refering to the WSOP.

I don't think Helmuth is even playing the main event.

If Phil Hellmuth finishes second in the Main Event, I am pretty sure he is going to kill himself.

Hehe but seriously, past MEs have been won mainly by unknown pros - Duhamel this year for example - and amateurs - Moneymaker. I think that this year it's time for a well known live or online pro to win it :)
