  You need to use the AssignRequest, see MSDN http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.crm.sdk.messages.assignrequest.aspx with something like this...

                     // Create the Request Object and Set the Request Object's Properties
                      AssignRequest assign = new AssignRequest
                          {
                              Assignee = new EntityReference(SystemUser.EntityLogicalName, _otherUserId),
                              Target = new EntityReference(Account.EntityLogicalName, _accountId)
                          };
  
                      // Execute the Request
                      _service.Execute(assign);

                    // where _service is the OrganizationServiceProxy

  You can get examples for these in the SDK documentation @ http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=24004

  Found the answer (not from copying MS SDK websites)

  Guid OWNERID = (Guid)myReader["owner"];

  OwnerId = new Microsoft.Xrm.Client.CrmEntityReference(SystemUser.EntityLogicalName,OWNERID)
