EPT Deauville: My Official Team

We’re less than 10 hours away from FPM lineups locking for EPT Deauville.

First, let’s take a look at the four players we highlighted heading into EPT Deauville’s Day 2 play (Note: some selections were made prior to the start of EPT Deauville):

Vanessa Rousso 81,100 chips

Paul Tedeschi 17,600 chips

Anton Wigg Eliminated late on Day 1B

Yannick Bonnet 75,600 chips

And now a look at my own official team for EPT Deauville (note, Wigg was removed from my team due to his elimination, all three other “Players to Watch” (Rousso, Tedeschi, Bonnet) are part of my team:

TEAM DANIS (Player, Day 2 chip count)

Paul Tedeschi 17,600

Vanessa Rousso 81,100

Philippe Boucher 160,700

Yannick Bonnet 75,600

Zimnan Ziyard 112,600

ElkY 105,500

Nicolas Levi 83,400

Kent Lundmark 30,400

Jake Cody 50,600

Matthias De Meulder 98,300

Ismael Bojang 72,200

I like my team although I think I may be spread a little too thin.  For this tournament, my strategy is to fill my squad so I have the most chances possible to collect points in the first event at Deauville.  I recognize that I am very Euro-heavy, which means that I will need to make some changes when the circuit heads to America – especially when the WPT plays LAPC and the Bay 101 in a short amount of time.

ElkY, Ziyard, Boucher and Rousso are doing fine.  ElkY said he had a terrible Day 1 – with over 100K in chips, I wish I had bad days like that!  Boucher (a former WSOPE bracelet winner in Cannes) lost a lot of chips in the last hour of action – he would have been the chip leader had it not been for that bad streak to end the day.

Really like Bojang and Bonnet in this spot, but that’s just a gut feel.

Meanwhile, Tedeschi, Lundmark and even Cody are in trouble – they will need to get things going quickly on Day 2 Tuesday.

It will be interesting to see if I am indeed to thin and if I need to adjust my strategy by adding a few more “expensive” bodies in time for the next event.
