Neil Ho Leads Unofficial Final Table
The $365 no-limit hold'em six-max event is down to its final seven players and there is a short break in the action as they redraw for seats at the unofficial final table. After one more player is eliminated, the final six players will earn credit for making an official WSOP Circuit final table.
There is about eight minutes left in both the level and the night with blinds of 2,500/5,000 and a 500 ante. Everybody is guaranteed a cash of at least $1,880, but everybody has their sights set on the $16,345 first place prize money.
Here is a look at the seating arrangement and chip counts for the final seven players:
Seat 1: Martin Kirsten - 101,000
Seat 2: Raj Ramakrishnan - 178,500
Seat 3: Tom Drew - 40,500
Seat 4: Neil Ho - 478,000
Seat 5: Joel Kop - 319,000
Seat 6: Brian Vickers - 397,000
Seat 7: Matthew Lambrecht - 155,000
