WSOP November Nine - Who Will Win?

The 2010 November Nine was set at the Rio in Las Vegas last month and include Jonathan Duhamel, John Dolan, Joseph Cheong, John Racener, Matthew Jarvis, Filippo Candio, Michael Mizrachi Soi Nguyen, and Jason Senti.

Excitement is brewing for the WSOP November Nine to shuffle up and deal starting November 6 to win the most coveted and sought after prizes - an impressive $9 Million and the poker bracelet. The final table of the Main Event will be played in Las Vegas.

Jonathan Duhamel of Boucherville, Quebec, is the chip leader in the 2010 World Series of Poker Main Event heading into the final table with a chip count of $65,975,000.

Probably the most well-known contestant is Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi.  He followed up his 2010 WSOP Player's Championship win by booking a spot in the 2010 November Nine. He will start at the final table 7th in chips with a starting stack of $14,450,000. Easily the most recognizable player at the final table of the 2010 World Series of Poker Main Event, all eyes will be on Mizrachi come November.

Last year the WSOP powers to be changed the format of the WSOP Main Event to be played in November.  As the time has unfolded it is obvious that the 3+ month lag gives the players time to rest and the marketing of the event to be hyped and maybe given even more sensation than in the past.

I'm wondering how you feel about it.  Do you like the new format of the final table being played in November rather than July?  Please share your thoughts.
