Reigning WSOP Main Event champion Ryan Riess is still in the mix here in Event #12 and recently stopped by the media desk to charge his phone. We asked him how his first year as world champion has been and he replied, "It's been awesome, I couldn't have asked for more."
He may not have asked for more but he could be on for his second bracelet here in this event as he has 47,000 chips and looks comfortable at his table.
