Stingy odds on Paddypower for Top Irish Finisher in the WSOP Main Event.

luckylucky

Was looking at Paddypower's odds for top Irish finisher, unsurprisingly I didn't see odds for myself. They have 26 names listed currently and the best odds are just 22/1 . I've no real idea of the numbers of other Irish players who are playing in this not included on this list, but I'd imagine it could be about another 26 or so again if not more, making those odds pretty awful. Maybe to make it a bit tastier Paddypower could offer odds on Any Other.

As far as I am aware 4 on that list are not playing:

Dave Masters
Oscar Fred
Dave O'Callaghan
Joe O'Neill

Missing definates are:

Jay O'Toole
Dave Callaghan
Conor Doyle
Colin Stuttard
Barry O'Callaghan
Pat O'Callaghan
Kevin Fitzpatrick
Eoghan O'Dea
Ciaran O'Leary

Only those listed count so any pick is a 22:1 shot all being even, maybe less as Paul Leckey and Ivan are not 100% for the main event. Peter Roche is also a doubt.

If that's the case the odds aren't as awful as I first thought then. You sure about this Mike? I didn't see anyting on the PP site to say it was just the top Irish finisher from that list.

no problem m8....whats th plan for ur 40th or should i say 21st

RoundTower

non runner rule 4 doesn't affect prices above 14/1. So if enough of these players don't show up, you might have a 0 EV or better bet on one of the "long shots".

thanks for the info Mike.

lucky lucky - we cant offer Any Other since its so difficult to estimate the true number of Irish playing.

PM me your name and I'll get you up there.

Yeah I can understand that, also apologies about the title of the thread, I didn't see the 'Only these players count' bit, in my defence it's in sort of small print, maybe you guys should make it clearer. Anyway I've probably done you a little favour in the end by this thread - you might get a few more punters as a result, so I don't feel too guilty .

I'll pm you my name then. I want 100/1 btw and even that's stingy odds for me
