Title: WSOP ME Best Celeb Bet
Post by: jjandellis on July 29, 2011, 10:03:04 PM
At the start of the ME somebody tipped Audley Harrison as value for the best placed celeb in the tourney.

Thought it sounded good and had a little bit @ 33/1.

Anyway I can't remember all the names on Blue Sq, but know AH at the very least got into Day 2.  However I found my bet had been refunded. When I called to check why, they stated that none of the celebs had cashed. I don't remember this being a stipulation - and just thought it was 'best placed celeb' (he may or may not have been...)

a) does this sound right to you?

b) does anyone know where the finishing positions are published? (or is it only the cash list as per WSOP site? - appreciate it'd be v difficult to do)

would imagine having to cash was in the stipulations, as theres no recorded place numbers for busting before that.

This - voiding if no one cashes is standard for these types of bets.

completely standard and pretty sure it was mentioned at least once on the thread where this was tipped

Yes it is correct and he wasn't the longest lasting of the celebs listed anyway I don't think.  Jason Alexander reached day three.
