Anthony Signore has the button in Seat 9. Joseph Georges raises to 44,000 from early position and Shane Stacey makes the call. Next to act, Osmin Dardon announces a reraise and makes it 179,000 total. Action folds back around to Georges and he takes his time before folding. Stacey folds quickly and Dardon picks up the pot.

Friendly Fire

This final table lineup is one of the chummiest in recent memories. The players have been photographing each other, as well as the stage and the final table area. It seems like every one of these guys has high-fived the other as if they were part of their own entourage.

They all just seem happy to be here and are clearly excited to have made it this far. It's as if they are all on the same team. We'll see if that attitude changes when the first hand is dealt.

Osmin Dardon is a professional poker player from West Covina, CA. He's already cashed once at this year's WSOP, making the money in Event #9, $1,500 six-handed NLHE. Dardon boasts a long resume of finishes in Los Angeles area events, where he has made six final tables in NLHE tournaments. His biggest tournament score came last November, when he finished third in a $2,500 NLHE event at the Bellagio's Five-Diamond World Poker Classic for over $63,000. Married with one daughter, this is his first WSOP final table.

Stacey most recently chopped a $500 WPT preliminary event at Foxwoods for $100,000 and is a proud member of the staking/strategy site Part Time Poker, where members of their crew have made an astounding three WSOP final tables inside of five days.
