Super MILLION$ Season 2, Episode 4 Final Table
| Place | Player | Country | Chips | Big Blinds |

| 2 | Isaac Haxton | Canada | 2,088,808 | 83.6 |
| 3 | szagos | Hungary | 2,008,136 | 80.3 |

Denisov sits down at the Super MILLION$ final table knowing this is his best chance of taking down the tournament. Denisov reached two final tables during the Super MILLION$ first season, finishing ninth and third. That third-place finish saw Denisov’s bankroll swell by $198,800.
Isaac Haxton, one of three former Super MILLION$ champions at this final table, returns to the action second in chips, only a handful of big blinds behind Denisov. This makes Haxton the favorite for glory in the eyes of many.
Haxton won this event all the way back in July 2020, and he has finished third on two other occasions.
Whenever you see a Hungarian flag at a final table you assume it is the legendary Andras Nemeth. Not this time because it is “szagos” who is representing Hungary this time around. szagos does not play many of Super MILLION$ events, and only has one previous in-the-money finish to his name, a 17th place finish in September 2020, but he reached this finale on merit and is one to watch.

The Super MILLION$ is yet to have an Israeli winner but that could be set to chance now that “jerbi9999” has navigated his way through the majority of this tournament’s field. This is the third time jerbi9999 has reached the money places in a Super MILLION$ tournament; one saw him finish 40th, the other 10th. Finishing fifth of better today sees jerbi9999 double their Super MILLION$ earnings.
Brazil’s Belarmino Souza is guaranteed a huge return on investment thanks to winning his seat via a $1,050 satellite. This is his fourth appearance in the Super MILLION$ during Season 2, but his first cash. He is guaranteed to beat his previous best score from this particulary tournament even if everything goes wrong and he busts in ninth. Let us hope that does not happen.

Who will win this week's Super MILLION$? Find out right here
Artur Martirosian has accumulated more than $16 million in winnings from GGPoker tournaments alone, with $1.75 million of that stemming from the Super MILLION$. Should the former champion win his second Super MILLION$ title, his earnings from this high-stakes affair will soar past $2 million!
Liechtenstein's “Goldo” is another finalist who won his seat via a $1,050 satellite. Goldo has a shade over $31,500 in winnings at GGPoker, with ninth place here worth $35,779. They may return in seventh place, but do so knowing they are about to enjoy their largest-ever online poker score.
Two legitimate superstars are bringing up the rear as the tournament’s short stacks. Anatoly Filatov, winner of this event in May 2021, sits down in eighth place courtesy of his 13.8 big blind stack. Filatov has a lot of work ahead of him, but he is talented enough to get himself out of his current predicament.
Thomas Muehloecker is the man entering the final table’s action as the shortest stack with 13.1 big blinds at his disposal. Muehloecker has never finished higher that sixth in this event, can he change that fact in this latest tournament?
