Ryan D'Angelo enters the final table of the Season XII WPT World Championship with the shortest stack (1.22 million and roughly 24 big blinds), but the saving grace is that if he is able to chip up early, he has position on both Keven Stammen and Byron Kaverman.

D'Angelo has $1,544,886 in career tournament earnings and four WPT cashes. He bubbled the final table of WPT Rolling thunder this season, earning $41,410 for his efforts. Before starting the penultimate day of play in that event, he joined the PokerNews Podcast to talk about his run and his dedication to juicing and healthy living.

The man known to some as "g0lfa" plans to donate a portion of his winnings to a charity based in South Africa. His largest career score came in 2010, when he finished fifth in the PCA Main Event for $700,000.
