This made me LOL.

I think the brackets are very interesting. Looking at them as a whole, mostly "well know" (active posters) players are being picked to win. This doesn't surprise me, of course, but I think we're going to be in for quite a few surprises. In a poker Heads Up match, it really doesn't take much for there to be an "upset," ya know?

I do agree that the 2Tone/Chip/pshabi/Aeq starting quadrant is by far the toughest looking, but I'll lay 5:1 that none of them wins the whole thing. One of them is guaranteed to make it to the Semi-Finals and then that guy only need to win 3 more matches. Piece of cake, right? We'll see about that...

Any takers?

You know, I originally wrote 3:1 and then changed it to 4:1 and the decided to make it a more fair 5:1. But you're on. $5 to me if none of the 4 win the whole thing, $25 to you if one of you does...

BTW, of the 7 brackets posted so far, 4 of them have one of the "Magic 4" winning. Maybe I should have offered 2:1!

We are under way now, so no more brackets will be accepted. 7 players, $35 total. Winner take all.

pshabi just beat Aeq, which really hurts those of us who had Aeq going deep.
