Making his fifth career World Series of Poker final table appearance this afternoon, this accomplished 41-year-old poker pro can be found rescuing captive chimpanzees on a regular basis with his fiancee. He has one World Series bracelet, coming in 2006 in the $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha event, where he earned over $650,000. He also earned $580,000 last year when he made the final table in the Main Event, placing eighth.
This 56-year-old records his second career WSOP cash and his first final table today. His previous WSOP cash came last year, where he placed 251st in a $1,500 no-limit hod'em tournament. He comes into this table seventh in chips, which is impressive considering that he was down to only 225 chips after four hands in the first level, and spent much of last night's ten-handed final-table play as the short stack, before dramatically quadrupling up.
Making his second WSOP final table this afternoon, he looks to continue his perfect final-table record -- his only previous final table, last year in a $1,500 no-limit hold'em tournament, resulted in his first WSOP bracelet, and earned him $673,000.
This 42-year-old poker pro has four previous WSOP cashes to his name, all coming in last year's WSOP, totaling over $75,000. He has made one previous WSOP final table, coming last year in the $1,000 No-Limit Hold'em With Rebuys event, where he placed ninth. He is in a good position to win his first bracelet today, starting as chip leader.
With seven previous WSOP cashes to his name, this 36-year-old poker pro makes his third career WSOP final table. He's had one final table appearance already this year, in the first event ($10,000 World Championship Pot-Limit Hold'em), where he finished sixth, cashing for over $150,000.
With one previous World Series of Poker cash to his name, this 38-year-old former British soap opera star makes his World Series final table debut this afternoon. His other World Series cash came last year in a $2,000 no-limit hold'em event, where he cashed for nearly $15,000. He previously played in a soccer match on the same team as soccer legend Diego Maradona and hockey all-star Sergei Fedorov.
No stranger to the tournament circuit, this native of Pakistan has cashed at least once in the World Series of Poker every year since 2004, including three previous cashes at this World Series. He has made two previous World Series final tables and his biggest World Series cash came at last year's Main Event, where he finished in 37th place, good for $270,000.
This 51-year-old father of three is a veteran on the European tournament circuit and a regular in no-limit hold'em and pot-limit cash games. He records his sixth World Series of Poker cash this afternoon and today's table is his third career World Series final table. In the 1998 Main Event, he placed sixth for $150,000. He will have to come from the short stack at this table to win his first bracelet.
Making his World Series of Poker final table debut this afternoon, this 28-year-old has two previous World Series cashes--one coming this year in a $1,500 no-limit hold'em tournament and the other in last year's Main Event, cashing for nearly $35,000.
