Event 45, No-Limit Hold'em / Six Handed - Event Details
This is the final table of the WSOP's last six-handed event. Coming in as the chip leader is none other than Erik Friberg. Alex Boutin is the closest to Erik, but still almost $800k behind. The rest of the table is nowhere even close, but it's No'Limit Hold'em so anything can happen. First place pays a whopping $904,672 and we hear they give out some kind of funky bracelet thingy!
