With 3rd place in this event guaranteed for Erick Lindgren, he will take the outright lead in the Milwaukee’s Best Light WSOP Player of the Year standings. The way things currently stand (before this event is “in the books”), Jacobo Fernandez is the leader with 232 points. Barry Greenstein will end the day with 235 points and Erick Lindgren, depending upon how he finishes tonight, will take the lead with anywhere from 245 pts (3rd place) to 285 pts (1st place finish.) There are a handful of POY eligible events remaining in the series, but it would take a very strong finish for another player to catch Lindgren.
