Major congratulations to these two fantastic gents who both top 8 two PCs in a row :) Your success is well deserved.

I just got off the phone, Lulu took the last game against Eugene Harvey to ensure his spot and Dalton is still playing but his result is not important to his status; he will be seed #1 and hopefully in the opposite side of the top 8 bracket to Spears.

With David Leader undefeated in the 10k right now, hopes are high for repeating the PC/10k triumph from Indy.

Congrats again guys, we're all super proud of you.

Okay, in the most frightful luck ever, Dalton and Spears are playing first round :(

I'm confident that whoever wins will go on to win the PC but that really sucks for them. No all-FTN final repeat for us.

Great job anyway guys, pissed I'm not there with you this weekend.

Congrats, A-Rod you didn't go?

Haha, frightful luck would be Josh Wiitanen missing 8th on tiebreakers. At least you're guaranteed a semifinalist.

I had to cancel my flight to LA due to an interview on friday (I'm in the homeland, as you may have seen from 10k UK earlier this month).

Really irritating, but I'm glad the guys did so well in my absence.

Chances of them meeting in the 1st round is so low and it still hit. Like a jackpot. Anyway, FTN has done well again.

How so... Dalton was guaranteed 1st seed 2 rounds ago while Dave was fighting to reach top 8, so he would make it in either on 7th or 8th seed, and since the 8th seed plays the 1st seed, the chances of Dave meeting dalton is 50:50, I never know jackpots were 50:50, raymond.

For anyone who is interested, the top 8 bracket is:

1. Dalton (Common Enemy)
vs
8. Spears (Common Enemy)

4. Horn (New School)
vs.
5. Hoeh (Squadron Supreme)

3. Sohnle (Fantastic Fun)
vs.
6. Reeves (Common Enemy)

2. Tatar (Common Enemy)
vs
7. Mueller (Squadron Supreme)

Winner of Dalton/Spears plays winner of Horn/Hoeh, winner of Tatar/Mueller plays winner of Sohlne/Reeves.

Tatar is my hero, though I do dislike the guy. Even the "good" drafting pro's are awful. Reading the coverage this weekend I've seen many terrible picks, and Tatar I'm sure knew this and has again practiced enough drafts to win out. I'm not saying he's the only good drafter, but I'm willing to say he's the #1 limited player in the world.

Oh yeah, and w/o wishing to leave out the other guys who did well to make money:

Milton Figueroa (#21)
Jason Dawson (#32)
Kim Caton (#56)

Congrats as well guys.

You talking to?

Dammit, Dalton. Stop being so good. Just stop. Please.

Okay, win this one, then stop.

=)

You, raymond....

How did you know me? That's amazing.

Trial and error... Your profile shows you're born in 1986, and there are only that many players in your age group.
