#WSOP4 #guess2 

10♥10♣ 

#WSOPguess and #guess2 and #Prono2 

5 (five)

So how many Europeans will be on the final table of WSOP!!! 

What a cool question. Got me realising I don't know much geography (my geography is reallly bad!) 

So I started by getting an idea for how many Europeans there are in the world..

From this article here...
World population - Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaen.wikipedia.org

(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_population)

So currently Europe is about 10% of the world's population. 

Really interesting to note that projections are that % of world population that will be European in 150 years will be halved! The only two regions that are showing a projected increase in 150 years compared with today are Latin America (0.8%) and Africa +8%!

So a nice little lesson in world population I now know Europeans account for about 10% of the world population and Asia accounts for a whopping 60% of the world total population. Thanks to this competition. 

So based on this I could make a very rough estimate and say 10% of the final table will be European so one player out of nine. But this seems like a really bad estimate, because the whole world doesn't play poker. 

So I decided to take another tact using HeroScore :) 

I looked at the Hero Score table for WSOP all time earners here:

http://www.rankinghero.com/en/rankings/EARNINGS.html?title=Top+10+biggest+WSOP+winners+all+time&period=ALL&id_circuit=1&Circuit=WSOP&ranking_type=EARNINGS&


Earnings - Ranking Herowww.rankinghero.com

and I added up how many people in the top 100 were European. Now as I said at the top of this article my geography wasn't great! So I used this article to check the nationalities of the top 100 players to figure out if they were in Europe or not.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europe


Europe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaen.wikipedia.org

Along my travels I learnt that Russia is in Europe (yeah my geography really is / was that bad!!!! :P )

I also got to learn some flags (for anyone that wants to improve their flag / country knowledge I reccomend exploring these tables, it's kind of fun)

Also a surprising fact was that I found out that a huge 73! of the top 100 all time earners are American.

Finally I added up the total number of European in the top 100 of the Ranking Hero WSOP all time money list

So 16% of the top 100 all time earners for WSOP are European! 

So I'm going to round this up in the spirit of optimism and go for 2 Europeans on the final table!

This is a very accurate post again. Well done!

Hey thanks ArchyWraith I'm learning alot doing these so am kind of loving them

#WSOPguess #guess2

The EPT and European game is much stronger and in general the players are really good at mid-high range.

I therefore predict coverage of 5 nations and I believe 6 players on the final table will be European.

I also predict a European winner.

My guess will be 2 Europeans at the final table of ME
