The PartyBets website has formed the odds on favorite as Sweden 3/1, the US in second at 7/2, Great Britain with 9/2, Ireland at 5/1, Germany at 6/1 and Holland in last with 13/2 odds.

A spokesman for PartyPoker has stated that the talent the players have this year is “brilliant”. He also stated that Sweden is the favorite to win because they have the same pros that played in last years tournament and are used to the format. He also stated that the US will be a strong force as well as the Great Britain team.

On the other teams he stated: “Ireland is a bit of a wildcard but there is little doubt that they have strength in depth in their side while Germany appear much stronger than previous years. The Dutch side led by Marcel has to be seen as the underdogs-the names don’t jump out as much at you as they with the other line-ups.”
