As much as $5,130,000 awaits the winner here, and Patrik Antonius is the closest current player to that prize. He is in fact the chipleader of the final nine players. His stack is worth up to 9,660,000. In second place is Roman Hrabec with a stack of 5,360,000.
Already, all final table participants have at least $510,000 in their pockets. Play will begin at 1:00pm on blinds of 40k/80k/80k and will run in 50 minute levels. Of course, there is also a live stream which can be found on our website starting at 14:00.
