The WPT World Championship Super High Roller with its $100,000 buy-in attracted 17 players, and four players bought in twice: Cary Katz, Jason Mercier, Erik Seidel, and Jean-Noel Thorel. However, none of the $200,000 players reached the televised final table, which begins at 4:00 pm PT today. Here are the six finalists:
Seat 1. Joseph Cheong - (picture) 1,646,000 (102 bb)
Seat 2. Andrew Robl - 169,000 (10 bb)
Seat 3. James Courtney - 1,690,000 (105 bb)
Seat 4. Steven Silverman - 1,339,000 (83 bb)
Seat 5. Daniel Perper - 164,000 (10 bb)
Seat 6. David Sands - 1,286,000 (80 bb)
Only the top 3 players will receive a slice of the prize pool, so expect it to be a very interesting final table with a lot of nerve.
1st: $1,023,750
2nd: $614,250
3rd: $409,500
