The players are starting to arrive to the secondary feature table, on the outside of the Mikwaukee's Best Light Bar here in the Amazon Room. There is a large crowd gathering - some waiting to get into the feature table to see the final table of the $50,000 HORSE event, but many are expected to be railing the final table action here with plenty of friends and family following the action into the early hours last night.

The players are unbagging their chips and taking their seats, with play to get underway in a few minutes time. Stay tuned for all the live action!
