38-year-old poker pro Thom Werthmann is the only person at this final table who has been here before and won. Werthmann defeated Layne Flack heads-up to win his first bracelet and over $369,000 in the 2005 $1,500 pot-limit hold'em event. He's made four cashes on the World Poker Tour and has over half a million in career earnings. This is Werthmann's fourth WSOP cash and his second final talble.

Perhaps the most unusual background for a WSOP finalist yet, Curtis Early was in the process of moving from Seattle, WA, to Dallas, TX, when a friend suggested he stop and play the tournament. With his U-Haul still parked in the Rio parking lot, he has outlasted over 2,700 others and comes into the final table second in chips. This is the 35-year-old's first WSOP appearance.

He starts the day in the 3 seat with 645,000 chips.
