PokerStar's World Cup of Poker IV is coming to an end in Barcelona. Canada, with Daniel Negreanu on the team, has reached the final along with Iceland, Romania and the U.S.A.

The preliminary team scoring round of PokerStars WCP IV was completed on Thursday, and these are the results:

Iceland - 45 points

Romania - 44 points

Canada - 40 points

U.S.A. - 37 points

Portugal - 33 points

Ireland - 31 points

Germany - 21 points

Mexico - 19 points

The top four teams will play a four-handed, tag-team tournament to determine which country wins the prestigious title and the $100,000 first prize.

Daniel Negreanu is not the only star player who will participate in the final. 2004 world champion Greg Raymer is playing for the United States. Katja Thater's Germany was, however, knocked out in the preliminary round.

The final can be viewed via webcast at PokerStars TV. The action starts Friday night at 6.30 p.m. (CET).
