Veronica Dabul and Leo Fernandez on Day 1

Throughout the tournament, Leo Fernandez has been at the center of attention. On Day 1 his table was surrounded by film crews, photographers, reporters, floor staff...and that was before he lost 90% of his chips in a huge hand during the first level. The crowd REALLY got crazy then, as a six-deep mob pressed as close as they could (or dared) to see what had happened to their native son.

But, Fernandez dug in and fought his way back from that early disaster and now finds himself at the final table. And one of his most enthusiastic supporters is Veronica Dabul, a fellow Team PokerStars Pro, who was sitting to Leo's right on Day 1 when he was crippled just minutes into the tournament. Now he's sitting at the final table, and Veronica is sitting right there in the front row by the stage, rooting Leo on.

After two bustouts in the first orbit, action has slowed down a bit. In the previous orbit, both Derek Lerner and Jason Skeans open-shoved from UTG and both players won the blinds and antes.

Sergio Farias a.k.a. the Latin Jon Lovitz

Sergio Farias is a local player from Mar del Plata. The crowd is filled with his friends and family, and they have been boisterously cheering on every hand that he has played. In the first orbit Sergio woke up with two big hands and busted two of the smaller stacks. Sergio jumped into second place in chips and trails the chip leader Dominik Nitsche by around 100,000.
