Essentially, the Fantastic Five is a fantasy pool for the WSOPE 2013.
If you're not sure how this works, here's how:
Buying players
We have provided a list of professional players and assigned values to each one. You have 300 credits to spend on your five-player team and two optional substitutes.
Unlisted players
If you want to buy a player who is not on the list, then ask in our thread and we'll tell you the cost.
Rankings calculation
This is easy - the total gross earnings of each player in your team throughout the WSOPE will be the score of your team.
Keeping track
We'll post the results of the events in our dedicated thread.
Threads must be created before October 11; threads created after this date will be excluded. We expect fair play from all, so please stick to the rules and enjoy yourselves!
