Fantasy ANYTHING rocks. Fantasy football, fantasy baseball, fantasy midget-tossing, fantasy fantasy...it's all good, I'm in. And now, thanks to the God-Of-Stuff-Guys-Like-To-Do, there's fantasy poker. I'm playing in the PokerWire Radio league on Full Tilt. This means my competition is Gavin Smith, Joe Sebok, Joe Stapleton, Really Good Producer Jeremy, LA Mike, JDN (the PW head-honcho) and any of our listerners who signed up.
I plan to crush.
Basically the league works as follows; everyone in a group picks three teams of five (A-Team, B-Team, and C-Team). A-Team players net you triple the fantasy points of their actual cash, B-Team players earn you double, and C-Team bank you equal value. You can change your roster with each event, or let one line-up ride for the entire series. For a much more detailed (and coherent) run down of the league and rules, click here.
Last night I picked my roster for Event #1 ($5,000 mixed hold'em). Let the domination begin...
A-Team
Daniel Negreanu
Phil Ivey
Erick Lindgren
Patrik Antonius
Allen Cunningham
B-Team
Phil Hellmuth
Carlos Mortensen
Nick Schulman
J.C. Tran
Nam Le
C-Team
Joe Cassidy
Daniel Alaei
Gabe Thaler
Gavin Smith
Joe Sebok
