2014 WSOP November Nine Profile: Mark Newhouse
Back on July 14, the 2014 World Series of Poker Main Event final table was set. The players in this year's "November Nine" are set to resume play on November 10, and it is a globally diverse group of young players who will be battling it out for the $10 million top prize.
In a recent Five Thoughts piece, Rich Ryan put the odds of Mark Newhouse making back-to-back WSOP Main Event final tables at 524,558-1. Last year, Newhouse made the November Nine, but bowed out in ninth place. This year, he plans to improve upon that finish, but he has already defied the odds and made poker history by becoming the first player since Dan Harrington to make back-to-back WSOP Main Event final tables (Ryan put Harrington's odds of doing so in 2003 and 2004 at 26,312-1).
Newhouse will enter the final table in November third in chips with 26 million.
