Unofficial Final Table: Defending Champion James Moore in Contention

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
James Moore

The unofficial final table of 10 has come together, and none other than WSOP bracelet winner, Ken 'Teach' Aldridge, leads the way with 1,550,000. He is in the hunt for a second bracelet and has eliminated quite a few players to get to this final table already.

James Moore won this same tournament last year and is still in contention for back-to-back titles for his second WSOP bracelet as well.

Meanwhile Veronica Daly is second in chips and is the last woman standing, hoping to snag her first bracelet on this massive stage.

Here is a look at how the final 10 'Super Seniors' stack up:
