It's so true that very average players can go deep in any given tournament.

hesp is proving anyone can lmao

Free money is hardly ever easy

+400 is still a good price for the 13 man field against Lamb right now

I predict he will give Jake a real sweat and finish second

[thetrinity]

This will be interesting to see his price to win now. I would have taken this situation after he was 4th going into the day.

definitely...I'll take it. I'm thinking he will be 10-1, possibly higher given he is last in chips and there are 2 monster stacks.

I'm hoping he's 10-1. On name alone, I don't think so. They make him too high, they'll get a lot of action. One double he would be 3rd in chips, and one of those monster stacks looks like he could give them away pretty easily. 23bbs he can still play some, not just shove.

haven't read all this.... are we down to dodging ben lamb to be good on our bets?

yes..here are the chip counts going into the final table:

1. John Hesp (85,700,000): The Brit had just $2,207 in lifetime tournament earnings and no WSOP results before the main event, but he’s guaranteed to have at least $1 million thanks to the final table. The 64-year-old is the oldest player left in the event.
2. Scott Blumstein (97,250,000): The New Jersey resident made the most of his first appearance in the main event and will enter the final table as the chip leader. He had $312,142 in lifetime earnings prior to the main event, about two thirds of which came in an event at Borgata last year. Blumstein has honed his game online in New Jersey’s regulated internet poker market.
3. Antoine Saout (21,750,000): Making his second final table in less than a decade, Saout has accomplished one of the rare feats in poker. The Frenchman finished third in the 2009 main event for $3,479,670. What’s even more amazing about Saout is that he finished 25th last year for $269,430. The 33-year-old currently has $5.5 million in earnings.
4. Benjamin Pollak (35,175,000): The 34-year-old Frenchman had $2,967,782 in lifetime tournament earnings prior to the main event run. Remarkably, he had a 27th place finish in the 2013 WSOP main event, which helped him reach the top 10 on France’s all-time money list. Saout is 5th.
5. Jack Sinclair (20,200,000): The Londoner is yet another finalist with minimal prior WSOPresults, having just $13,500 in live tournament earnings before the tournament, but he had two deep runs in no-limit hold’em events this summer, preparation for wading through the main event. Sinclair is actually a 26-year-old online poker pro with loads of experience.
6. Damian Salas (22,175,000): The Argentinean has $919,525 in poker tournament winnings not including whatever he scores for this week. He made a final table at the WSOP in 2016, one of his 14 lifetime cashes at the annual summer poker festival. Salas led the main event after day 4 (297 players left) with 4,678,000 in chips and was able to turn it into a final table.
7. Ben Lamb (18,050,000): The Las Vegas poker pro finished third in the 2011 main event, which earned him a little over $4 million. He also won the PLO championship that year for his first career bracelet. He has lifetime tournament earnings of $7.2 million and is widely regarded as one of the best high-stakes cash game players in the world.
8. Bryan Piccioli (33,800,000): The 28-year-old poker pro had $1.9 million in lifetime earnings prior to the no-limit hold’em championship, which includes a bracelet in a 2013 WSOP Asia-Pacific event. Piccioli, who hails from Allegany, NY, has more than $6 million in winnings online.
9. Dan Ott (26,475,000): The Pennsylvania resident had under $4,000 in earnings before entering the event, and this summer was actually his first ever WSOP. The 25-year-old’s previous two lifetime poker cashes came this summer on poker’s biggest stage. Not bad for a rookie year.
Here’s a look at the final table payouts:
1. $8,150,000
2. $4,700,000
3. $3,500,000
4. $2,600,000
5. $2,000,000
6. $1,675,000
7. $1,425,000
8. $1,200,000
9. $1,000,000

haven't read all this.... are we down to dodging ben lamb to be good on our bets?

Yes been that way since 642 people left

[BaseballChaser]

Chip counts are all really close. Usually 9th going into the final table is extremely short. But, only 5 big blinds separates him from 6th. And 1 double puts him in 3rd

[thetrinity]

My personal odds:

Hesp 6-1
Blumstein 5-2
Sauot 7-1
Pollak 5-1
Sinclair 14-1
Salas 14-1
Lamb 7-1
Piccioli 5-1
Ott 9-1

Yep. Plus lamb has 23bb so some room to play.

[ChuckyTheGoat]

Would be cooler if Ben Lamb wins this.

I've played vs Christian Pham and actually thought he was a Donkey.

FWIW, Pham was an opponent I referenced in my Strategy thread. He badly overplayed Q9 (middle pair) into 2 opponents.

[thetrinity]

Chucky you nailed him, his bustout hand also looked pretty bad.

[PaperTrail07]

Lamb wont win.....other guy are legit and he's small stack....

[BaseballChaser]

Lamb at 14-1 to win on PokerShares. And most of us have the field at plus money

[ChuckyTheGoat]

Chucky you nailed him, his bustout hand also looked pretty bad.

Trin, it was a hand where he got me to lay down KJ (which would have been the 3-way winner).

Poker is funny. One day, I'll say it's beatable. Next day (like today), I'll say it's Bingo and unbeatable.

I saw Pham call w/ AK (pre-flop). Low-board flop, 7-hi. Very tight female player goes all-in. Pham calls huge bet. Female had 99. Only reason to not re-raise w/ AK = chance to get out on bad flop.

[thetrinity]

Can't do pokershares and haven't seen any lines yet for the final table. I'd gleefully take Lamb at 14-1 to win right now.

I have not found any lines yet either. My guess is many books will have it up today at some point.

He's in last place but a double puts him in 3rd

[thetrinity]

Bovada has hesp at 3/1. He's going to have to be really lucky short handed to win. Should be way higher
