The WPT Championship Final Table
7 months ago
This is it kids - The Season VII WPT Championship final table!
A more than a $2.1 million first-place prize and a World Poker Tour Championship title is on the line here at Bellagio.
2008 APT Macau champ Yevgeniy Timoshenko will come in holding 13.3 million in chips and a massive lead over the field.
Two-time EPT finalist Christian Harder is second in chips with 7.4 million, just above Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier's 5.95 million.
Next is the venerable Scotty Nguyen with 3.2 million in chips and a chance to become poker's all-time leading money winner should he take this down.
The short stacks coming in are Israeli Ran Azor with 2.5 million in chips and 2006 Bellagio Cup champ Shannon Shorr on 1.3 million.
Outside of the prestigious title in the offing, Grospellier, who took down the WPT Festa al Lago title this past October, can grab WPT Player of the Year honors with a fourth place finish or better.
PL.com will have all the action from start to finish beginning at 4 p.m. PT.
Get your popcorn ready - The Season VII WPT Championship final table is next.

The Final Table is Set
7 months ago
The final table is set here at the WPT Championship and it will not include Brian Rast.
He ran A
K into Yevgeniy Timoshenko's K
K
and Timoshenko had him barely covered.
The flop, turn and river brought no joy for Rast and while he went out seventh, Timoshenko was vaulted into the chip lead.
Scotty Nguyen will head into the final table with a chance to become poker's all time leading money winner and Team PokerStars Bertrand Grospellier has a legitimate shot at winning the WPT Player of the Year title.
The rest of the final six is made up of two-time EPT finalist Christian Harder, 2006 Bellagio Cup winner Shannon Shorr, and Isreali Ran Azor.
The final table will get going sometime after 4 p.m. Saturday and PokerListings will have all the action in chewable live update form right here.
