Charles La Boissonniere currently leads the World Cup of Cards Tournament Leaderboard. He has 1,350 points and is 130 points ahead of Jason Conforti. Conforti is about 20 points ahead of Joey Boczek. The three players are battling it out for the leaderboard with four more days left in the World Cup of Cards.
The CPPT could go along way to La Boissonniere cementing his lead and taking the victory, or it could be a good chance for Conforti and Boczek to overtake La Boissonniere. Currently, La Boissonniere is sitting at about half the starting stack and Conforti is just under the 30,000 starting stack.
Boczek hasn't been seen yet today, but thanks to the Playground Poker Club World Cup of Cards commercial, whenever Boczek walks in he is greeted with bird calls. It will be pretty obvious if and when Boczek enters this starting flight.

Figiel would like to start traveling to other tournament series' and a deep run here would reinforce his own belief that he is more than ready to make a splash on the tournament scene.
