Roy Bhasin takes a commanding chip lead into tomorrow's final table
The final table is now set and it should be a very interesting and entertaining affair, featuring some of Australia's most successful PLO players. Roy Bhasin will enter with a commanding chip lead and will be looking to add to the PLO title he captured at the Victorian Championships here at the Crown Casino in August. He'll have to overcome some tough opposition including Jamie Pickering, who has a WSOP PLO runner-up finish to his credit, and a short-stacked Manny Rodrigues, who also captured a title at the Victorian Championships.

The chips counts at the end of the day's play are as follows:

Roy Bhasin - 238,000
Koray Turker - 90,500
Jamie Pickering - 83,000
Anthony McNamara - 65,500
Paul Triandafillou - 59,000
James Kronos - 56,000
Abel Cabrera - 46,000
Con Tsapkounis - 40,000
Manny Rodrigues - 14,500
