The Final Countdown

Today is the final day of the World Series of Poker Circuit Main Event here at Harveys Lake Tahoe.

From our starting field of 327 players, just 11 have made it this far. They're just a couple knockouts away from a WSOPC final table, and there's a six-figure top prize and a shiny diamond ring waiting for our eventual champion. In addition, the lucky winner will punch their ticket to the season-ending National Championship in Las Vegas where $1 million and a bracelet will be up for grabs.

Our final eleven chairs are mostly filled with relative unknowns, but we do have a two-time Circuit champ with us. David "DC" Clark's most recent victory came right here in Lake Tahoe when he took down Event #1 for close to $20,000. He's parlayed that cash into a deep run here in the Main, and he'll likely be the betting favorite to win this thing today. His short stack is a mark against him, though; Clark begins the day near the bottom with 445,000. It's less than 30bb, but it's well within striking distance.

The big stack sits at 892,000 to begin play, and those chips belong to Ron Segni. Courtesy of a monster three-way pot, Segni skyrocketed his way to the top of the counts last night, and he's kept himself perched there since. The pack is finally closing in on him now, though, and both Dennis Pevarnick and Hank Czarnecki both begin the day with more than 850,000 as well.

Play is set to get under way in less than an hour, and we've got a ringside seat for the action. There are two tables in play for now, but it likely won't be long before they reconvene around the final, live-streaming table.

Don't wander off; we've got a champion to crown here in Lake Tahoe today!
