Several of the remaining players arrive with serious momentum during this stretch of the series. Chris Hunichen and chip leader Qinghai Pan have each reached three straight $10,000 final tables at the PokerGO Cup, continuing an impressive run of consistency against some of the toughest competition in the game. Darren Elias is not far behind, having made two consecutive $10K final tables, and will look to convert another deep run into a PokerGO Cup victory.
Six-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner and the newest vlogger at the PokerGo studio Jeremy Ausmus returns as the short stack, needing to find an early double to stay in contention. Landon Tice, who began the final table near the top of the counts, slipped down the leaderboard after losing a massive pot to Hunichen in thefinal hand of the night on Day 1. Also still in the mix are Anthony Gregg and Neil Warren, both capable of making a run once cards are back in the air.
