Ben Lamb is an American professional poker player. He is currently the World Series of Poker Player of the year. See link here:

http://www.wsop.com/players/2011.asp

It shows him in 3rd, but his points do not include +100 (minimum) for a WSOP Main Event 9th place - For those who do not follow poker, the Main Event plays down from 6000+ players to 9 (known as the November 9) - He is currently in 5/9 with about average chips.

Regardless, due to his success, certain people in Vegas have given him a few watches. His favorite is a Breitling for Bentley Midnight Carbon w/ black diamonds on the lugs and case. I have not seen it yet (I am his older brother) in person, but will Friday. Not particularly my taste, but I don't think I would turn it down if given it for free.

Anyways, watch him Sunday playing the final table on various ESPN outlets (TV + ESPN 3 online) and he will be wearing this watch.

I cannot locate a picture of Ben wearing the watch in google images, but pokernews.com has several of him wearing it here:

http://www.pokernews.com/search/images.htm?q=Ben+LAmb

The 4th picture is the best.

He was also given a 2-Tone Chronomat 44 recently that I may borrow (permanently).

I will be there on the front row wearing my SOSF.

Yeah, I remember seeing a Bentley at the table. Cant remember what it was though. Also a bunch of Hublots.

Lamb was killing it though. Good luck to your bro.
