After two days of competition, only six players are left to battle it out for the title in Event #2: €1,650 No-Limit Hold'em 6-Handed Deepstack. Not only will the players be competing for the WSOPE gold bracelet, but there will be €82,280 awarded to the winner as well.
Coming into the final table, Asi Moshe will be leading the charge with 2,095,000 chips after an incredible Day 2 rally. Moshe dominated the field as he continued to stack pot after pot and pull away from his opponents. Moshe is the only player at the final table who has already laid claim to a WSOP bracelet back in 2014 and today he will be looking to add a second one to his list of accomplishments.
Among those looking to get in his way will be James Bullimore who bagged up 1,822,000 chips. Bullimore was down to around 10 big blinds at one point on Day 2 but battled his way back to sit second in chips on the final table.
