 |
|
So if you were an owner/decision maker in the upcoming draft with one of the early picks, who would you select?
Let's say, for brevity, what your Top 5 would be if it were:
a) NLHE only
b) Mixed Games |

| How could you leave arieh off both those lists? He's by far one of the better NLH players of the past 5-10 years, even though he doesn't have a lot of bracelets he's made tons of cashes in big tournaments. He showed off his talent this year at the WSOP by earning a bracelet in either omaha or stud (don't remember), but it was a dominate showing. |

It was Omaha... and to be fair, I didn't like Josh's play at that final table (at least what they showed on TV) at all, nor his WSOP Main Event performance last year...
he's a good player overall, but there isn't a chance in hell I'd put him in a Top 5, and, to be fair, if he was honest, I doubt he would either....
but that's not really the point because I SAID those weren't my picks, I was just posting an example for others to follow for THEIR actual picks
