Seeking James Akenhead

[action man]

yeah he probs just wants to try and nip him up

[StuartHopkin]

I was looking about before the main event for the odds. I couldnt find any that gave odds for the winner, all i could find was November 9 odds. Ladbrokes had Ivey at 60/1 to make FT, players like Lederer, A.Black, De Wolf, Dwan, Hansen all around 70-90/1. Most others were around 150-300/1 for final table with any other unnamed player at 1000/1 just for final table.

Good on you making a good profit off this is he pulls it off but i really can't believe you put this kind of money on these odds

Are u sure? 1000/1 on any unamed player would make it almost worth having a tenner on everyone!

[action man]

do you know everyone's name who played?

both prices quoted seem like BS to me, people quote prices that don't exist as well as oddschecker

Er no.

Lol

I was just making the same point that it sounds like crap.

If i was to have attempted it my betting slip would have said

WSOP 2009
£10 to final
Players 1 through 7000
Non runners = void bet
Total Stake £70,000

LOL Nikolay Edvakov

You've obviously never played with him.

If he ever wins the main event I'll give up poker. He makes Flushy look like a half decent player.

[The Camel]

Scary.

Dry'em and KarlM looking at this thread at the same time.

I will show James this once I get a chance (I'm sure he will see the comment left on the blog). No doubt he will be very grateful for the support

Cheers Karl, much appreciated - I probably enjoyed his progress almost as much as the Hit Squad did! May end up letting it ride and see how things develop initially when the Nov9 start playing ...

I think Phil Iveys the only person id back in a 7k runner tourny @ 751/1.

Possibly Tom Dwan too.

What tournament  has he ever won?  Has he even ever went deep in a big tournament?

Made the final table of some WPT event, i think.

[Royal Flush]

2 WPT finals and 2 WSOP finals, not bad considering he doesn't play that many.
