Featuring six of the world’s top poker players, including 2008 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event champion Peter Eastgate, the final table will offer a top prize of $300,000 to its winner.
Joining Eastgate at the final table will be accomplished poker pros Tom “Durrrr” Dwan, Juha Helppi, Tony G, Roland de Wolfe, and J.C. Tran. Here is a look at the chip stacks of the remaining contestants heading into final table play as well as seating assignments when the action resumes:

Dwan made a pair of final tables during the 2008 WSOP, finishing eighth in the $10,000 buy-in World Championship Mixed Event for $54,144 and also placing eighth in a $5,000 rebuy No Limit 2-7 Draw Lowball tournament for $45,111.
