    Default November 9 -- Who's Your Pick?

    The ME FT starts on the 6th. I'm so out of the loop when it comes to poker, it's funny. I actually thought The Grinder was at the FT this year. That is, until I looked and realized that was last year --LOL

    Anyway, the FT will start in the next week or so. Who's your pick to win it?

    Here is the FT w/chip counts.

    From what I'm reading, it sounds like Ben Lamb might be one of the favorites, due to how well he's been doing at the series overall. That said, he's 5th in chips.

    On a side note, I read an interview on Anton Makiievskyi, and he was asked if was more interested in the cash or the bracelet and he said the bracelet (edit, he said cash). In fact, he said he'd take 3rd place cash right now if he could. Thoughts?

    I'm pretty out of the loop myself, I was always more interested in myself than a bunch of guys on TV. Maybe I should try to watch a bunch over my next few days off, don't have much better to do.

    Money or Bracelet? I think I might take a bracelet too, money is nice and all, but that bracelet gets a ton of respect.

    Also, none of those guys are very photogenic

    Opps -- He actually said he'd take the cash, sorry. Doesn't make sense to say he'd take the bracelet, but a 3rd place cash would fine

    I agree with you though -- I'd go with the bracelet myself. Not just from a respect standpoint, but just how rare it is. How many people can say they have a bracelet? Especially for guys who don't play regularly or aren't as well known.
