There are still ladders and such around the final table, and there don't seem to be any signs of a start anytime in the immediate future. Keep jamming on Reload, though, and we'll update you as soon as we can!

Final Table Bios: Seat 9, Erick Lindgren (Las Vegas, Nevada) 345,000

Erick Lindgren
Along with Andy Bloch and a few others, accomplished tourney player Erick Lindgren is one of the most frequently mentioned candidates for “best never to win a WSOP bracelet.” At nearly $6 million in lifetime earnings, Lindgren has earned more in poker tourneys than any of our other players at tonight’s final table -- and more than most poker players, generally speaking. Lindgren has two WPT titles to his credit, as well as 14 cashes in WSOP events. He has come close here before, with four final tables and one second-place finish in the $5,000 Short-Handed No-Limit Hold’em event in 2006.

Since turning 21 in September 2006, Justin “ZeeJustin” Bonomo has already collected over $1.1 million in tourney winnings, with several deep finishes in high-profile events. In addition to five WPT cashes, Bonomo cashed three times at last year’s WSOP (his first), including a fourth-place finish in the $2,000 No-Limit Hold’em event.

Most of us first saw David Williams when he took second in the 2004 WSOP Main Event, earning $3.5 million for his efforts. Since that impressive showing, Williams has established himself as a fearsome tourney player, with numerous cashes and multiple final tables in WSOP and WPT events. Williams is seeking his second WSOP bracelet tonight. In 2006, Williams won the $1,500 Seven-Card Stud event. He also took second that year in the $5,000 Deuce-to-Seven Draw Lowball event.

In addition to his considerable online success, Isaac Haxton has come on strong in the live tournament poker scene after making a big splash finishing second at the PokerStars Caribbean Poker Adventure in early 2007. That finish netted him over $860,000, and subsequent cashes -- including three at last year’s WSOP -- have pushed Haxton’s overall tourney winnings up over the $1 million mark. This is Haxton’s second WSOP final table, having finished seventh at last year’s $1,000 No-Limit Hold’em event.

English poker pro Roland de Wolfe has earned close to $4 million in tournament winnings. Today he hopes to match Gavin Griffin’s accomplishment of winning one of poker’s elusive “triple crowns,” that is, victories in WSOP, WPT, and EPT events. De Wolfe took first in the Major Grand Prix de Paris WPT event in 2005, and in 2006 won the EPT’s Dublin event.
