The 2017 World Series of Poker main event final table has the potential to be one of the most entertaining of its kind in quite some time. Two former November Niners in Ben Lamb and Antoine Saout are back for a second shot at poker's world title. The chip leaders are an East Coast-hardened WSOP main event first-timer in Scott Blumstein and a boisterous, loudly-dressed amateur from the U.K., John Hesp, having the time of his life in a tournament with a buy-in 1,000 times his typical stakes.
There are two WSOP gold bracelet winners, more than $17.
