Making the nine player final table were Tom Dwan and Amir Vahedi, but both went out before the final table was set for the TV taping.
Gus Hansen is the heavy favorite to win, while Tommy Le is the dark horse in this tournament. He's Nam Le's brother, and in the words of Steve Sung, he "Could possibly be the sickest player you've never heard of"
