Gordon Vayo Leads Winstar River Series Main Event Final Table

Five days ago the first flight of the Winstar World River Series Main Event kicked off and drew 1,057 entrants over three starting days. The Day 1 flights proved to be grueling at 14 hours a piece, then Day 2 clocked in at another 13 hours and the nine survivors return to play for the $1 million first-place prize and leading them all is current November Niner Gordon Vayo.

It's not a one-man show with another November Niner, Chino Rheem, a 30-year veteran of the game in Layne "Back-to-Back" Flack, Grant Hinkle and Daniel Fuhs at the table. Ben Ector and Long Duc Nguyen return in near the top of the counts and local players Dean Bobel and Jeff Duvall rounding out the counts.

The final table returns at noon with blinds at 40,000/80,000/10,000 with stacks ranging from 8 big blinds to 85 at the start, we expect a few quick bustouts then some deep stacked play with experienced players.
