You can get 60-1 for Phil Ivey the get to the Final Table, but only 26-1 for him to win the whole thing. That's a no-brainer!

Just realised what the deal is here. It is against a limited field of 100. So if Ivey goes out in 250 place, but is ahead of the other 100 listed you still win the bet.

Cheers, that market must have gone up in the last day or so, got the last 19 pounds currently being offered at 100/1

Just took $50 on Gus Hansen at 80-1 and $50 on John Juanda at 90-1. These also represent fantastic value.

there are going to be 6000 entries right? you may have reevaluate the meaning of the word fantastic.

Perhaps it's more the evaluation of the word 'Dead Money' that's necessary here.

As the majority of the players in this years WSOP are online satellite winners, you have to ask yourself this; Are Harrington, Juanda, Ivey or Hansen better than the average 100 players who have qualified online? If you think the answer is yes, than any odds below 100-1 represent 'Getting the Best of it' as Mr. Sklansky would say.

Yes, they are fantastic value at these prices.

"These represent great value."

How do you figure that?
Has either one ever been to the final table of the WSOP $10K?
Has either one made the final table of a 6000 person event?

I think I need to go to betfair and start taking bets on the other side of these, because they represent +EV for me. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
