WNT Florida Open 2026, August 4-9, Orlando, Caribe Royale

Yapp did not play well. He looked shaky even when advancing in the Vice City Classic and he was shaky from the very start of the Florida Open.

Max Lechner also ousted by AJ Manas, but not really an upset.

We had 43 players with top 100 Fargos in this tournament at the start. Eight of them are gone, 35 remain.
I was "underwhelmed" in watching yapp. Spent a great few days down there, and Yapp wasn't great. Eklent and Kledio looked sharp. SVB and Filler looked dominant. Bergman showed up last night. Should be an exciting finish.

What, in your opinion, is the minimum Fargo you should have before entering a WNT Open?

I play all the big dogs around me whenever I get the chance just for that reason! I can play a 790 fargo races to 8 for $50 several times per week. I win maybe one out of every 4-5 sets, so it's a bit cheaper! Anytime I want during the set I can ask what their thoughts are on the situation. I learn a lot!
I play in a league where the average player is at least 150 Fargo higher than me for this reason. It has definitely forced me to improve to be competitive.

For lower ranked folks in tournaments, I've got a friend on a league team that's like a 450 Fargo and signed up for the Texas Open. He's been playing really well recently, but I can't imagine he makes it more than a couple rounds. He decided to do it because however slim there is a chance he could play Fedor or SVB.

For me, I'm hoping one of them offers exhibition matches for folks to play them for money. I'd pay $100 to play a quick set with one of them
just to say I did.

Whose your daddy?

yes and that can be figured out without a computer program. just a pocket calculator. and pencil and paper for those who did that sort of things before either.

and once i figured out one time, how many tries it would take for a smaller chance happening to be 50% i went and beat one of the highest rated gambling bettors out of more than five figures. it wasn't intuitive
