Seat 9: Sean Getzwiller (Las Vegas, Nevada, USA)

Originally hailing from Tucson, Arizona, Sean Getzwiller is without doubt the most in-form player heading into today's final table.

He may not be the most well-known player of the final ten, but his victory in Event #8: $1,000 No-Limit Hold'em earlier in the series for over $600,000 is sending his notoriety skyward. Getzwiller however isn't just a one-hit wonder either, as he has logged results over the past few years including nine previous WSOP cashes.

Living here in Las Vegas at the Panaroma Towers like many fellow professional poker pros, Getzwiller has a great opportunity to become the first double- bracelet winner of 2011 if he can best this final table.
