Daniel Negreanu is once again in the list, currently sitting at 8/1 odds. Two of the old school poker professionals, Doyle Brunson and Dan Harrington, are currently tied with Annie Duke at 12/1 odds.

"Every single one of the players in both tournaments has an excellent shot at taking the top prize, but some players bring their A-games every time they come out for tournament play."
