blonde poker forum

For the last two years Blonde has run a WSOP Fantasy Contest, in 2007 The Camel ran it and in 2008 I took the reigns (ably assisted by Kinboshi's spreadsheet wizardry). I haven't got time to run it this year but would like to particiapate and as we are only around three weeks away this seems an appropriate time to start a thread.

Entry was $20 last year i believe - thread here - http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=33612.0

I don't really have time to do this this year - but my spreadsheet (that I didn't create in the first place, it was AndrewT) is available for hire.

I'll play if someone's running it.

Not sure I have the time to run it (Alright, I cant be arsed) but I'm in if someone who knows spreadsheets n that wants to run one

you sure dont.

I'm in. loved this last year

I'd be in again. Perhaps blonde could run it themselves and add some free monies or something  ;)

shrewdies section ftw!

Im in

I am happy to run this - if Kinboshi can send me the spreadsheet then i will do it.
