Seat 5: George Danzer (2,868,000)

George Danzer

George Danzer enters the final table third in chips, and is in search of his first career WSOP gold bracelet. In 2010, the German finished third in the $10,000 No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw World Championship, and in 2012 he finished in the same position in the same event. In 2012 he also finished runner-up in the $2,500 Omaha/Seven Card Stud Hi/Lo event, falling just short in a heads-up match against two-time bracelet winner Oleksii Kovalchuk.

Danzer’s biggest score outside of the WSOP came in 2009, where he finished 24th in the EPT Grand Final for €52,000.

Known for his online handle "trickyscarfy," Danzer has a total of 35 career cashes in the World Championship of Online Poker and 13 in the Spring Championship of Online Poker. Only one player, Jon "PearlJammer" Turner, has more combined cashes in the two online poker series'.

On the actual felt, Danzer has just over $700,000 in career tournament earnings, and he can more than double that number today with a runner-up finish or better.
