I'm the same, I'm also rooting for Lawrenceville Plasma Physics. I think partly I like their approach (dense plasma focus) because of the promising results they've had with it (despite criminally low funding) and also, on a less important but nonetheless compelling note, it seems to be the most elegant fusion approach.

Aside from the potential for aneutronic fusion (essentially zero radioactive waste), and reactors small, cheap and safe enough to put in residential neighbourhoods, it's the way that they're using the instabilities in the plasma to their advantage. Reactors like the tokamak try to control the plasma, whereas dense plasma focus reactors use the natural instability in order to compress the plasma in a way that leads to fusion. So instead of fighting against nature, you make use of what nature gives you.

If any investors are reading, you really are looking at potentially the best investment you've ever made. If I was a millionaire I'm absolutely sure I'd invest. Even if a different fusion device wins the race, you'd still have a device capable of exploring the dynamics of plasmas, as well as a useful tool to explore magnetic fields. It's almost a no brainer.
