There are nine players filling the ten seats at the final table -- guess who's missing? It looks like we're still a good five minutes away from starting.

The chip bags are on the table, and some of the players are milling around the stage. There is no sign of Phil Hellmuth yet, but we wouldn't expect him to be on time, would we?

Expect play to begin in approximately 15 minutes.

There are ten players left in Event #38 $3,000 NL Hold'em. Dustin Holmes is the chip leader with 1.075M.

Phil Hellmuth is among the final ten players. He was quick to point out that he has not made the final table... yet. If he can survive one more bustout, he'll tie T.J. Cloutier with 39 career final tables. Currently, Hellmuth holds the record for bracelets with 11, and the most WSOP cashes with 60. He'll try to win bracelet #12 later today. He has a lot of work ahead of him considering that he's one of the short stacks.
