The Grinder has been my pick from day one. I'm going with him, Raymer, and Watkinson as final 3.

I like Ivey more than anyone on this list, even on a relatively short stack. Of the ones listed, though, I'd have to go with Greg, with Howard as a backup.

Another vote for the Grinder. I think a lot of people are all over Raymer because he posts here and they want to tell their friends " How me and Raymer talk on the Message Boards all the time"
I think a lot of people here wouldnt even acknowledge him if he didnt post here

Why is everybody picking on him? Just beacuse he happen to be a big guy or out of envy? He seems like a very intelligent person with a good game. Kinda the same thing with Robert V. He might have been very lucky to win but what has that to do with his personal qualitys?

I wasnt picking in him, I jsut commented that there is a lot of Raymer Butt Kissing on this board. Not a comment on him or his playing ability.

I jsut think if he wasnt a poster on this board, a lot of the Raymer Worshippers wouldnt be around.

People here who have seen lots of Greg's posts know that he's a scary, scary player when he's got chips. I think he's as scary as anyone when behind a big stack. He got my vote because of this. Also, he got my vote because people will play poorly against him because they want to knock out the champ. A big stack loves this. Yet another reason is that he has experince winning this thing and has gotta be full of confidence right now.

i voted juanda despite his modest stack, because juanda is widely regarded as the best preflop nlhe player in the world, and it seems like a lot of the action in this world series is happening preflop.

on the other hand, the chances of any of these guys making the final table, at this point, is still pretty freakin small

Layne Flack and The Grinder also share most of these traits, though. Maybe without the experience at the big one, but they have plenty of major tournament experience. The only added advantage Greg has over them is the fact that people might be gunning for him more, but this might make it harder for him at times as well...

And no love for Jason Lester becuase this is a pick one list and he really doesn't have the reputation that some of these other players do (other than the one major final table).
