Seat 1: Bryn Kenney, USA -- 3,820,000
Chip leader Bryn Kenney is looking for redemption after finishing third in this very event last year.
With $6,701,899 in live tournament earnings, numerous super high roller final tables, and a World Series of Poker gold bracelet, Kenney has plenty of experience to work his way to a victory. What's more, he's looking to continue his ascent in the poker world.
Back in 2014, Kenney had a career year when he amassed $1,281,367 in earnings, which included the aforementioned WSOP bracelet win, which came when he topped a field of 445 in Event #63: 10-Game Mix Six Handed to win $153,220.
As if things couldn't get any better, Kenney had an even better year in 2015 by amassing $2,099,904 in earnings, which included $468,997 for a third-place finish in the APPT Asia Championship of Poker Super High Roller; $287,870 for finishing runner-up in the WSOP Event #2: $5,000 No-Limit Hold'em; and $112,980 for taking 11th in the PCA High Roller.
As you can see, Kenney's best year to date started with a hot start at the PCA, and it looks like history could very well repeat itself. All that said, Kenney is no doubt focused on the task at hand — using his chip lead to claim victory. Only time will tell if that comes to pass.
