I have to agree with shokaku here, it's way to early to say who will take this, but you need to observe this is truly a great evet organized by world series of poker
Of course the buy in is pretty high but i don't think this is a probles for the type of players are allowed to register, they are all wsop winners after all, so i don't think 50k is a problem for any of them
Anyway, by the looks of the competition you definately need to notice than Benjamin Lamb it's a great poker shape for sure after winning that PLO bracelet this year, but again he is closely followed by Gus Hansen, and we all know that Gus is just an excellent poker player, no matter what game: plo, no limit holdem
I'll really follow this wsop even closely
