Lee Markholt (1,125,000) is another tournament crusher in the final table mix, with more than $4.3 million in career earnings. Jeremy Kottler (1,285,000) is also in the hunt, and he'll be looking to add to a resume that includes more than $1.5 million in eanrings.
Michael Pearson (995,000), who won the Harveys Tahoe Main Event in 2016, is also in the hunt, while Mitch Garshofsky (855,000) is at a WSOP Circuit final table for the second time in his career.
The remaining field will play until a champion is crowned, with 15-minute breaks after every two levels. Coultas comes into Day 3 with a big chip lead, but the other players at the final table have plenty of chips to play with, and the championship is truly anybody's to win.
