A Bit About Our Final Six

- Vince Musso has been at the final table of this event before... in 1979, when he finished in third place.

- NYC native Nick Schulman has over $3.5 million in tournament earnings and two WPT titles, but is going for his first WSOP bracelet this afternoon.

- John Juanda earned his fourth bracelet at last fall's WSOP-Europe Main Event after a 22-hour final table, the longest in WSOP history and will be attempting to add number five today.

- Steve Sung already picked up a bracelet this month, winning the $1,000 "Stimulus Special," beating out the largest non-Main Event field in WSOP history (6,012).

-Ville Wahlbeck was on the verge of quitting poker... that is until he won his first bracelet in last week's $10,000 Mixed Event.

- Then there is Archie Karas-- the man, the myth, the legend, who in 1992-1995 famously ran $50 into a $40 million bankroll before losing it all within three weeks. At the 2008 WSOP, Karas made the final table of the Razz event, finishing seventh, and has already cashed once this year, in the other NL 2-7 event, which was ultimately won by Phil Ivey.
