This is a very strong and deep field, but unfortunately only a handful of players have a realistic chance to win. Only ten or eleven players can win this event.

And here they are in no particular order:

Ronnie Alcano
Johnny Archer
Shane Van Boening
Lee Vann Corteza
Mike Davis
Niels Feijen
Dennis Hatch
Thorsten Hohmann
Mika Immonen
Dennis Orcullo
Ralf Souquet


Let's see, eleven players. You let me have these eleven players and I'll give you the other 117 and lay 2-1 on the money. Anyone want a piece?

One thing about Joss Tour events, one never knows WHO's going to win. Looks like a good bet with 2-to-1 on the money.

I'm going to bet my lowly 25 vChips right here on this forum! :D

EDITED: It is winner breaks format.

hmmmmmmm.would you consider moving that line my way just a bit? i may make a small sweat bet with you jay.

Okay, 5-2 but that's it. We can bet 20 or 40 or 80. Your 20 against my 50 etc.

Notice I left out quite a few very good players, like Richie Orem and Ronnie Wiseman just to name two.

I need eight for an even money bet. Eight against 120 sounds about even doesn't it?

Jay, you may already know this, but this is alternate break format, which can hinder some players' skills set when it comes to break-and-runs.

i would hate to have orem or wiseman as my outs! heres another offer;we both pick 3 players,i will give you 1st,5th and 6th,i take 2nd,3rd, and 4th OR flip it and i pick 1,5 and 6 for $50 and we only get paid if one of our players WIN and if not its a dead bet.sound fair?
 
HOLD ALL BETS!

I am wrong and stand corrected. It is not alternate break. It is winner breaks.

Sorry for any confusion! :o

What happened to 5-2? You've got 117 horses to root for. We can do this bet next.

i just cant see one of those players not getting there.i would need mulitple upsets to have a shot.if say 3 of your players made the final 8(and most likely will) i would be in a bad shape.i would like to make a sweat bet though.i made a prop and you can make me one now if you like, im all ears.

My offer still stands. I'll take these eleven guys against the field and lay 5-2. Any takers for a dollar or two?
