GPI Fantasy Poker Value Pick of the Week

With the recent launch of the GPI Fantasy Poker Manager on Facebook, we��ve been offering a few value picks.

WPT Barcelona begins on April 5, and we suggest you take Adam Levy. Known as ��Roothlus�� online, Levy is available for the minimum price (10,000), yet is just as valuable as a player like Matt Salsberg, who is very expensive (212,690).

To look at the entire list of 300, visit the official GPI website. While you're at it, follow the GPI on Twitter and its Facebook page.
