Welcome back to the final day of Event #13: $3,000 Freezeout No-Limit Hold'em will resume play at Noon local time with seven players out of 720 entries returning to the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino.
All seven players have secured at least $49,238 but will all be looking to grab a bigger share of the $1,922,400 prize pool. The eventual winner at the end of the day will walk away with $371,914 and the WSOP bracelet.
Brandon Caputo will come back in pole position as he bagged 7,280,000 last night which equals 60 big blinds at the start of play. But hot on his heels is someone who is no stranger to WSOP success, Michael Gathy with 6,700,000 in chips while Gabriel Andrade completes the top three with 4,900,000.
Gathy is the only person at this final table who has won a bracelet before, and not just one, he has four in his collection already. He is also the only player not representing the United States as he hails from Belgium. Craig Mason, Harvey Mathews, Girish Apte, and David Lolis will be trying their hardest to keep the win and bracelet here in the US.
