Hovering down the leaderboard at this final table is another big name and big threat. John Phan has a list of poker accomplishments dating back to ten years when he haunted the LA poker rooms. The long list of cashes includes a near miss last year at the World Series, where John finished second in a $1,000 Hold’em event. He took home over $280K for that finish but we all know it’s the bracelet that draws John and the other players at this WSOP 2007 Final Table.
John begins today’s play with 88,000 chips and I would guess he is ready to pounce early.
