Welcome back to the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino and the 2011 World Series of Poker for the re-comencement of the final table of Event #4: $5,000 No-Limit Hold'em.
Although scheduled to play down to a winner yesterday, the new hard-stop rules of the WSOP prevented the conclusion of the final table, but after a few nervous hours of sleep, just four people remain in contention for the Event #4 bracelet.
Crushing. That is the word that best describes the way Allen Bari played the final table, and if he and his amassed 9,125,000-chip stack has it his way, he will definitely be looking to continue to crush the final table. His three opponents are all roughly even-stacked, and it is Maria Ho that is capturing a lot of the spotlight from Bari as she has become the first female to make a 2011 WSOP final table.
With $874,116 on offer for whoever can best the final four players, here is how the prizes and final table payouts have fallen:
| Place | Player | Prize |
| 1st | $874,116 | |
| 2nd | $540,020 | |
| 3rd | $348,148 | |
| 4th | $255,028 | |
| 5th | Thomas Ross | $189,574 |
| 6th | Ricky Fohrenbach | $142,841 |
| 7th | Jesse Chinni | $108,914 |
| 8th | Mikhail Lakhitov | $84,033 |
| 9th | Farzad Bonyadi | $65,535 |
