Why I chose like I ddi ...
The reasons I chose who I chose who I did: (above)
Hann is the 'hot' player, Efren can NEVER be counted out.
Souquet is a smart highly consistent elite player, Matlock, although most don't know him, was probably the biggest gambler in the country throughout the 80's and early 90's (having backers in Ok. up to $500,000).
He knows pressure,and when he is on, boy, he is really on. Go back and look at the last 2-3 days of his playing. When he 'had' to win, he did, consistently. He has the know how and experience to get there. Some of the Filapins will 'die' through strangulation, meaning by them playing each other they will offset their wins with losses.
Manalo, more like Efren than Bustemante, definitely a force to be dealt with. Gabe, is a smart player and fast study, and Gabe has good pattern play and finesse' to his game. He also came through yesterday with 2 wins when he was 1-2 going in. And he beat Efren doing it. Gabe has the talent to beat any player, whether he does or not depends. I also believe there will be some strangulation in this group.
