The Time Approaches
David Dao took the overnight chip lead into Day 2, and we will see him here with us today at the final table as well. He's not as healthy as he was then though; Dao bled some chips towards the close of play yesterday, and he'll be riding one of the short stacks today.
Matt Stout doesn't have to worry about riding any short stack. Stout was second in chips after one day of play, but he would charge to the top in Day 2, thanks in part to one huge showdown with Jeremiah Vinsant. Stout came out on top, making him the first (and so far only) player to crest the 1,000,000-chip mark. "Allinat420" has one third of the total chips in play, and he will be the huge handicapping favorite today.
Bios and photos of the final nine will be posted shortly, and our final table gets underway in one hour, at 2:00pm CST. We hope you'll join us then as we crown a victor here at the WSOP-C Harrah's Tunica!
