According to one source, Liz Lieu got IN. Clonie Gowen is an alternate at this point.
Kathy Liebert is definitely OUT. I also have confirmation that Greg Raymer is OUT. [/ QUOTE ] Didn't DN say he was a big part of the PPL? If so then it doesn't surprise me that Greg is out. I think that's unfortunate for everyone involved. Greg is obviously very marketable. |

If that's the case, it doesn't bode well for the other 6 in the WPT lawsuit.

I am kinda curious what they used to determine the top 64, minus the 8 woman.(assuming it is 8)

(see a few posts above this one) I think its funny that he admitted this tournament(??) isn't the best 64 players in the world because there aren't 8 women in the top 64. Of course it's true but I'm suprised that he actually admitted it. |

Also would you base it on pure ability or marketabliity? [/ QUOTE ] One source tells me that the selection process was heavily politicized, which explains why: 1. Evelyn Ng got IN while Kathy Liebert, who was among the top 2 or 3 money-earners during the 2005-2006 tournament poker season, was left OUT 2. Greg Raymer was left OUT, presumably because of his feud with Daniel Negreanu Welcome to the entertainment industry, "poker players". |

I realize there are a couple unexpected ones. That I could try to defend but maybe they'd only make sense to me. Also sorry Kev. I started a new thread cause I thought I was hijacking this one. |

The difference between the top 64 and the 64 that'll actually be on the PPL broadcasts is a large one. When the list comes out on the 7th (or leaked before that), it surely will be cause for much discussion.
