When you're out of work, poker can be a good place to turn if you're looking for some extra cash. That's just the case for John McNeilly from Sonoma, California. He's made his way to this final table and is guaranteed at least $7,942. That's a little bit more than last year when McNeilly final tabled this same WSOP Circuit event. He went on to finish in ninth last year, taking home $6,737 for his finish. The field was a lot smaller last year and only paid nine spots, making this a bit better of a run for McNeilly. Previously, McNeilly worked as a manager at a winery and also a high school basketball coach.

McNeilly would like to acknowledge the support he's received from his wife, his two daughters and his older brother. His older brother, who is diagnosed with ALS, has been following along online with the rest of McNeilly's family and friends. He'd like to give a shoutout to all of them and hopefully he can come home with the title.
