As a result, we have ourselves yet another heavy-hitting WSOP final table for you tomorrow. Indeed, this may be the most star-studded we've seen yet, with no less than four multiple WSOP bracelet winners (Johnny Chan, Phil Hellmuth, Daniel Negreanu, and John Juanda), two of whom are former Main Event champions.
Will Daniel Negreanu become the first two-time winner this summer? Will David Benyamine capture his first bracelet? Will chip leader Phil Galfond, Brian Rast, Adam Hourani, or Kirill Gerasimov take the title? Will Chan win his 11th bracelet, or Hellmuth his 12th?
Come back tomorrow at 3pm Vegas time for the answers.
