| Final Table | 8 | Hokyiu Lee | Hong Kong | 4,365,000 | 44 |
Mokhammad will look to close the deal and add to his over one million in career earnings, according to The Hendon Mob. Should he finish third or better, he will set a new high mark for best single-event cash in his career.
Mossinger will enter tomorrow enjoying the experience of his first final table appearance at the WSOP. The Brazilian will have a chance to double his career earnings if he finishes fourth or higher during the final day.
Shankar already has one cash this summer, and will now add a second cash to his 2026 WSOP resume.
Speaking of already cashing this summer, Hokyiu Lee (4,365,000) will enter fresh off a second-place finish in Event #35: $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha 8-Handed, where he took home $294,420. The WSOP bracelet winner will have a chance at redemption after he fell just short of capturing his second piece of hardware.
Bouwe Claushuis (2,275,000) enters fifth in chips. The Dutchman has collected $332,653 in earnings, and will have an opportunity to add a significant score to his resume. His highest finish at a WSOP event occurred last year at WSOP Europe when he took eighth place in the €10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Mystery Bounty event.
Gianluca Cedolia (2,070,000) has been to a final table before, but is in search of his first bracelet when he sits down on Saturday. Cedolia last cashed at a WSOP event during last year’s Main Event, but the Canadian’s highest finish came back in 2014 when he took seventh place in the $1,000 No-Limit Hold’em Turbo event.
Zachary Gruneberg (1,805,000) will enter the final day last in chips. Gruneberg already has two bracelets to his name, but the American will have plenty of work to do if he wants to capture a third title as he enters with 18 big blinds. Gruneberg’s last bracelet came in 2024 when he won the No-Limit Hold’em PKO Online Bracelet Event. Gruneberg will be in the hunt for the first live bracelet of his career.
