Greetings from the feature table area at the 2009 World Series of Poker, where ten past WSOP Main Event winners return to battle at the final table of the Champions Invitational, each chasing the inaugural Binion Cup and a vintage cherry-red 1970 Corvette Stingray.

Exactly half of yesterday's 20 entrants return for today's action, with the seat assignments as follows:

(Seat 1) Berry Johnston -- 7,625
(Seat 2) Carlos Mortensen -- 42,375
(Seat 3) Peter Eastgate -- 18,425
(Seat 4) Robert Varkonyi -- 13,450
(Seat 5) Tom McEvoy -- 31,000
(Seat 6) Huck Seed -- 15,400
(Seat 7) Dan Harrington -- 19,975
(Seat 8) Phil Hellmuth -- 1,125
(Seat 9) Jim Bechtel -- 30,475
(Seat 10) Doyle Brunson -- 20,250

The official start time is 3pm, but it will be a while before all the players are present and the action begins.
