WSOP Season 2 Finale!!

What a wild few weeks. I cant wait until next week for the playoffs. This week has some key games in both divisions. IF PFN beats SPS by one more than SS beats SPS they have the tiebreaker edge to take home field round 1. Looking at the East, the playoff order still is up for grabs. I suspect that whoever wins the DS/BNR match will most likely catch the round 1 bye. 8BC has a tall order if they expect to beat LPL. 8BC could shock though especially if LPL shows short like they have been recently.

EASTERN MATCH
----
BNR vs DS, Monday @6pm, Room: Welcome to the Jungle

BNR has a perfect opportunity to go back to back seasons as the Eastern Champs. That's going to be just a bit of pressure, I really don't think it will effect them though this week. Chip and Dina have a lot of determination. They want to win this BADLY, how badly? well, they brought in some players midway through the season which was the sole reason they are now the top dogs. Recruiting is key people, BNR is the perfect example of why mid-season recruiting can change a season around.

DS has made it to the show. Last season they finished at the bottom but this season is another story. Chuck brought in Corey and Cam and those two characters are a big reason they made it. I do think that making it isn't enough for Chuck. He wants to shove-it down BNR's throat by taking their round 1 bye just in the nick of time. Does DS have the talent to take down BNR? Yes but home field will be a factor and can Cam keep his hot head in check?
Outcome: 4-2 BNR


WESTERN MATCHES
----
PFN vs SPS, Monday @7pm, Room: Bad Times

Well with the acquisition of James from BP, PFN is in position to make a deep playoff run. The question is, can PFN hold up to LPL when they meet Round 2? Yes, I am looking past SS, sure SS has a lot of great players but thus far this season they have not cracked the win column against PFN. Two meetings thus far and PFN is 2-0. Oh, I am sorry I am supposed to be doing predictions about the current match. Basically PFN thumps SPS in the season finale and takes home field round 1 of the playoffs.

This season has been forgettable for Jason. He lost some players and left his team worse than last season. They have digressed in quality of player over WSOP's short history. Last season they barely missed out on the playoffs while this season they were thumped around and treated like a rag doll. I think Jason will turn this all around but it wont be vs PFN and it sure as heck wont be done this season.
Outcome: 5-1 PFN
