Nabil Hirezi will enter the event with a chip lead of 2,792,000, followed by James Calderaro. He recently became the WPT Lucky Hearts Poker Open main event champion and now has a chip count of 1,916,000.
Calderaro emerged victorious over 415 players in that event in February, winning his first WPT main event title and pocketing $271,103. Faraz Jaka is in fifth place with 542,000 and he has already been twice at WPT final tables.
Other players who didn’t perform remarkable were John Racener at 13th position with $11,424 and Jared Jafee who was 2013 WPT BestBet Jacksonville Fall Poker Scramble main event champion, but now he was left on 12th position with $13,935. The final chip counts for the final table are:
