FTOPS XI

Once again I have gotten in the Pocket 5's team event. This time my teammates are Jason Dewitt and Ben Lamb (TheMasterJ33 and benba). It looks like it will have around 12-15 teams I think. I would lay our odds at about 4 to 1 to win even though we are facing some perceived stiff competition. They will be paying 2 spots (unless we reach 20 teams), and I would think our chances of "cashing" are 33%. Despite the big names in the contest, a handful of teams will not play enough events (this always happens and unless they go off, they have no real shot), and another handful are just NLH specialists (this group has a small edge in the NLH events, but a huge disadvantage in the other games). You can follow the contest here:

http://ftops.pocketfives.com/ I will also likely provide updates every day or two.

My tentative schedule will include every event but the 5K event (unless I get a big score or satellite in). This will be 24 events and I'd like 5 cashes minimum. A final table is always one of my goals, and a win would be the icing on the cake to continue the solid start I've had in 2009.
