Seat 7: James Bord (1,331,000)
James Bord is 29 years old and plays poker for a living. Prior to playing a card game for a living, Bord worked in banking. He has since turned his funds into poker chips on the felt and so far it��s proven to be a solid decision, which will be further solidified if he can win here today.
This event marks Bord��s sixth cash in a WSOP event. It��s not his first final table though, he placed sixth this year in the $1,500 No-Limit 2-7 Draw Lowball event for just under $13,000. His largest cash on record came from a second-place finish in a Venetian Deep Stack event for $29,269.
Although Bord doesn��t normally play tournaments, he��s done very well to grind his way to the final table here. He regularly plays high-limit cash games around the world, but this final table could have him catching the tournament fever. Bord will enter the day right in the middle of the pack, fifth in chips with 1,331,000.
