The Final Table is Set

Sixty-seven players started today with dreams of claiming one of the eight seats at tomorrow's final table. One by one, those dreams were shattered. J.J. Liu knows that pain well -- she bubbled off the money despite the fact that the player on her immediate left had only a single 100-chip left in his stack when she was eliminated.

Once the money bubble broke, play proceeded at a tidy pace towards determining the final eight players. With the elimination of Michele Ferrari, we finally know who they are:

Casey Kastle - 456,000
Chong Wing Cheong - 454,000
Rober Karian - 419,000
Yevgeniy Timoshenko - 318,000
Quang Nguyen - 315,000
Julio Diaz - 315,000
Joon Hee Yeah - 160,000
Michael Pedley - 132,000

Play will start tomorrow with 47:36 left on the clock in Level 19. By the end of the day, one of these eight players will be $500,000 richer. Join us here at PokerNews.com at noon local time for updates on all of the action!
