Main Event Winner

Anyone else think Greg Raymer has a chance this year? I think he could win it.

Theres a pretty simple answer here.
He obviously has a chance seeing as he did win last year. But it will be extremely tough with such a large playing field this year. This is quite a thread. <font color="black"> </font>

Somewhere around 6600 people have a chance to win it.

But no more than 100-200 people have a decent chance of winning it. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

With 6000+ entrants, the best player in the world (whoever that is) is probably no better than a 1000-1 dog.

Phil Gordon (I think) wrote in an article he thinks the best players have a 500-1 chance in his opinion.

I would think that the players with the best chance to WIN, would be those who are agressive and can build a large chip stack and use it to bully the relatively inexperienced field. Its going to take a lot of chips, so I would think that floating along waiting for hands isnt going to work, because at some point, you will go card dead.

The WSOP ME is good hunting grounds for the likes of the Fossilman. Intelligent, aggresive and willing to gamble Greg will play with cautious optimism and give them a run for their money. Unless of course, he busts out early.

[Hold'me]

I think Vincent Lepore will win the WSOP ME.

I think 2004 will be the year he finally takes it down myself. -
