We hope you're not tired of Stephen Chidwick yet!
You saw plenty of him in the 2018 US Poker Open on his way to winning the overall series title, and thus far at the 2019 USPO he's made four final tables, including a victory in Event #1: $10,000 NLH. Over the course of the first six events, Chidwick has four cashes and four final tables for over $350,000, and that doesn't even count what he will win today.
With a cash in Event #6: $25,000 Pot-Limit Omaha, he books another score of at least $58,500, bringing his total cashes to at least $400,000. Chances are he'll win even more than that as he carries the chip lead into today's final table, being over a million chips ahead of his nearest competitor. A top prize of $351,000 awaits the winner.
Among others to make it to the final table are Anthony Zinno, Tom Marchese, and Sean Rafael, while Ben Lamb makes his second cash of the series and Cary Katz notches his third. Yesterday, Katz finished second to Ali Imsirovic in Event #5: $25,000 No-Limit Hold'em for $295,000. Katz enters the final table with 665,000 chips and sits fourth in the pack as he makes his third final table of the series.
Here's a look at how the rest of the final table stacks up:
| Seat | Player | Chip Count |
|---|
| 1 | Ben Lamb | 450,000 |
| 2 | Tom Marchese | 265,000 |
| 3 | Sean Rafael | 890,000 |
| 4 | Stephen Chidwick | 2,375,000 |
| 5 | Cary Katz | 665,000 |
| 6 | Anthony Zinno | 1,225,000 |
