Seat 6: John Holley (315,000)
John Holley is a 49-year old professional fisherman from Destin, Florida. He was recently divorced and has three children, ages five, seven and eleven. Holley claimed to have had a vision that he'd make the final table of this event after he did a good deed. In addition, Holley says his kids want to see him make a TV final table. Although today's final table will not be televised, a Holley victory would earn him a spot in the WSOPC Championship and a chance at that TV final table along with $1 million.
"This has been the most challenging year in my life going thru . . . the Gulf oil spill but God has told me to take it one step at a time," Holley confessed. A WSOPC final table seems like a step in the right direction. Holley's 315,000 in chips will be the fifth largest in the room.
