Hot on her heels with 3.765 million is 2003 WSOP Main Event champion and Team PokerStars Pro Chris Moneymaker. Along with them, NAPT Venetian runner-up Sam Stein is in the field as is Mike Sowers.
Play kicks off at 12:00 P.M. here in the Bahamas. PokerNews will have all the action for you as we grind down to a final table. The $5,000 NAPT Bounty Shootout also kicks off today at noon and you should follow that coverage as well.
