I believe one of our own posters from Indiana is at the final table. He will give out his name after the tourney

JC Tran but I wouldnt bet it at those odds. His seat is amazing, he has short stacked Benefield to his left along with amature Jay Farber. While on his right are the most dangerous players & big stacks that stand in his way. Id be surprise if Tran doesnt end in the top three

Riess is a joke, Farber is the worst player at the table, Benefield is great but too short

Sharp post but could you elaborate on Riess? Seems to be a good live player from what little I've seen on the ESPN coverage. Has a strong, unintimidated table presence and four cashes in the 2013 series. Also had a strong year on the WSOP circuit events leading up to this including a second in the Hammond Main event for over $200k. As I said earlier I don't like his position, (Lehovot, McLaughlin, Tran, Benefield to his immediate left), but considering his stack size he's able to take control of pots and be creative. Let's not kid ourselves, so much of this comes down to a handful of coin flips and running good at the right time. If I'm wagering on this event I prefer to take my shot(s) with a decent stack size and getting somewhat decent odds with, in essence, a 9 player SNG.

I've heard negative reviews on his play outside of the dozen hands shown on WSOP coverage. However my negative sentiment towards him is more to do with his lack of perspective... read this article and youll understand what I mean...

There's a fine line between being cocky, (as this interview exhibits), and being confident. As pocketrockets said he does have a ego but since when has that been a determent at the poker table? Everyone from Hellmuth to the local grinder at your favorite 2-5 game has an abundance of that.

Nothing wrong with being 23. Every winner is 23 or younger now. Cada, Eastgate, Duhamel, Heinz and even Jake Balsiger got down to final three last year. My concern is his maturity level and his lack of preparation. All the above winners were online pros with tons of experience at a early age. Balsiger was coached by Timex McDonald. What's Riess done to prepare? He's never been a online grinder so he certainly hasn't played the volume of hands all the other young champs have. Instead he went to L.A. and played WSOP circuit events. Some small cashes but to me I think he would have spent his summer more wisely in going the direction Balsiger did. For him to say he's going to watch ESPN coverage of his opponents to prepare is ludicrous.

I listened to his "ESPN poker edge" podcast interview yesterday. He comes off immature and aloof. He talked about how he played with Ivey, Hellmuth, etc. this summer in New Orleans and how that grew his game. His lack of experience and preparation does scare me off. I think he'll be more concerned with the pay jumps than winning a bracelet.

Still looking for someone to back besides taking the obvious chalk.

That's my take as well.

Updated Odds

JC Tran +300
Marc-Etienne McLaughlin +460
Armir Lehavot +525
Ryan Riess +550
Jay Farber +625
Sylvain Loosli +850
David Benefield +1300
Michiel Brummelhuis +1500

I'm going with Sylvain Loosli. I like his starting stack, position, decent odds, and the work he's done over the summer to prepare.
