Limit Hold'em Champion Set to be Crowned
Welcome back to the Rio as we get ready to play down to another World Series of Poker gold bracelet winner. Who will become the limit hold'em champion? Only time will tell, but as of right now it is Matthew Woodward who has the chip lead, followed closely by none other than Terrence Chan.
It all started two days ago when 166 of the best players in the world took to the tables with high hopes of getting here today. However only 17 of those managed that feat and are still in with a chance of taking down the $206,760 first-place prize.
There is no doubt that today is going to be a fiercely contested battle as talented poker players and limit hold'em specialist are all still in with a chance of becoming the victor. Here's how they lineup today:
