Seat 8 - Jamie Whyte - 40.4 million
Level 37
: 400,000/800,000, 100,000 ante
Jamie Whyte already has some impressive scores under his belt, with five-figure scores in both the WPT500 here at Dusk Till Dawn in 2015 and the WSOP Main Event last summer. He's looking to follow that up with another five-figure, maybe six-figure cash on this final table.
Whyte tells us his poker hero is Phil Ivey, and describes him as "the goat." He says he'd love to play him heads up one day, "in the Caribbean somewhere."
He says he really likes the new aesthetic of the cardroom here, and appreciates what partypoker and Dusk Till Dawn are doing for the players and poker in general. He qualified for the Grand Prix UK through a $2 satellite ticket via the Click & Collect promotion on partypoker - let's see how much he can run that up to!
