I'm interested in knowing which players are receiving coaching, and who are coaching. Below is what I have gathered. Please add to it as you find out :)


Qui Nguyen = ?
Cliff Josephy = Ryan Riess (Not sure why he would pick Ryan. He backed Joe Cada, and he seems like a better player than Ryan.)
Vojtech Ruzicka = ?
Gordon Vayo = Tom Marchese (Great choice for a coach)
Kenny Hallaert = Fedor Holz (So sick to get Fedor the GOAT Holz)
Michael Ruane = ?
Griffin Benger = ?
Jerry Wong = ?
Fernando Pons = ?

Isn't it customary for the previous Main Event winner so make the intro, and say "shuffle up and deal"? Why didn't Joe McKeehen do this, and is he even at the event???? I haven't seen him.

Who is everybody pulling for? I'm hoping Johnny Bax wins the bracelet. He and Sheets were big inspirations a decade ago. Plus, it'd be nice to prove that we "older" players can still compete with the young guns!

Not a problem. It was really confusing since they started on ESPN then moved it to ESPN 2.

I have been watching since it started, and I like how William Kassouf has been the most talked about player. He isn't even at the final table, and they are milking the "Kassouf Effect". I'm done watching for the night, but will be back tomorrow when it starts back up.

I don't know if it is a live broadcasting or not
looks like the table is a little tight, players play a little straight forward.

I for one think ESPN has mostly screwed the WSOP up with the November 9 thing.

Did any of you quiver in anticipation for 4 months? No, I didn't think so.

Now they are seemingly intent to stretch what is essentially a 9 seat SnG to be a 3 day event.

Not to mention they are all playing way to tight.

Like the way Cliff Joesphy is playing. Experience might be the key to winning this it this year.
