Final Table Set; Play Recommences 4pm Tomorrow

We started the day with 169 players with 17 prized bounties up for grabs along with a prize pool of over $83,000. All of the big names were here, led by the name behind the event, Mr Tony G himself, who put in a fine performance today before splashing around late in the evening to finish in 11th. Other impressive performances went to Ben Delaney who was the chip leader in two different events today, but the tide turned late in the evening as he bowed out in 16th place, while Andrew Jeffreys and Ben Savage have both made the final table in this event, their second final table in the last 24 hours - a remarkable achievement.

They will be led tomorrow by the fast-finishing Bruce Nguyen who enters the final table with 164,700 chips.

Bruce Nguyen - 164,700
Nick Haidaris - 156,000
Angelo Prifti - 125,000
William Skountzos - 110,000
Andrew Jeffreys - 87,700
Riku Koivurinne - 77,700
George Dionisopoulos - 53,600
Ben Savage - 48,700

The final table action will kick off at 4pm local time, so we look forward to your company then!
