Default Betting on the WSOP Final

Quite funny this one. I was just checking out some of the odds for various players in the Big One. 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!

My personal favorite bet here is Harrington to make the final table. I mean seriously, how many times has he been there or there abouts. I just put $50 at 100-1.

Where did you find 100-1? I saw somewhere at 66-1 and was going to have a bet at that price.

Really Harrington at 100:1? Where? If true finally a bargain somewhere.

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

Remember that Americans can't bet on Betfair.

There are some non Americans who will be interested, just thought I'd better point it out to the others [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

It's a shame, I'd love the extra action in that market.

FWIW I got all of the 1.8 about 0 Hendon mob bracelets.... [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Last year, one site was offering even money on the "Field" with a $50 max bet. The field was everyone other than 100 named players. Fossilman was in the Field. Dan Harrington was the last named player eliminated. That was one of the biggest overlays I've ever seen. Any chance we'll see something even close to that this year?
