FFFC 2012 Preview Part 1: The $10 Qualifiers

The FFFC Qualifiers are all finalized and the 24 contestants have booked their trips to Las Vegas to compete for a shot at a ridiculous $150,000 Grand Prize. If you remember into baseball season, we had a series of previews leading up to the DFBC finals including qualifier analysis as well as in depth games previews. Well we are doing that once again and will start with an in-depth look at the players who earned their seat at the “final table” so to speak.
Here’s the plan. I have broken the qualifiers down into two groups. The $10 qualifiers and the $109/$270 qualifiers. This is simply because the $10 winning scores needed to be a little higher, in general, to take down a seat than the smaller games with more expensive buy-ins. Part Two will break down the $109/$270 Qualifiers.
