Yi Ren Hu wins the Fantasy WSOP League after Scotty Nguyen’s win in the $50,000 H.O.R.S.E. Tournament
With only Brandon Cantu scoring points in the Main Event from all the selected players in the 2008 PokerPlayer WSOP Fantasy League, the leaderboard remained unaltered from the previous event, which means pervious leader Yi Ren Hu’s 905 points is enough to scoop this years competition.
Yi Ren’s points scorers were: Allen Cunningham (20), Barry Greenstein (70), David Benyamine (225), Daniel Negreanu (40), Eli Elezra (80), Kenny Tran (200), Marcel Luske (70) and Scotty Nguyen (200).
Runner-up John Paddick was represented by Benyamine (225), David Chiu (35), Greg Raymer (20), Kenny Tran (200), Robert Mizrachi (150), and Scotty Nguyen (200).
Check out our team, which managed a creditable ninth place finish:
