When the latest episode of World Poker Tour airs on Sunday night at 8pm and 11pm local time on FSN, there will be three players left sitting at the WPT World Poker Finals final table, looking to have their name engraved on the WPT Champions Cup. Young pros Daniel Santoro and Christian Harder will go up against each other and the 62-year-old amateur and pawn shop owner, Bob Carbone, for the chance to walk away with more than $400k in prize money for first place.

Here are what the chip stacks will be when play starts:

1. Daniel Santoro – 3,283,000
2. Christian Harder – 1,537,000
3. Bob Carbone – 901,000

As you can see, Carbone has an uphill battle ahead of him if he wants to be the last person standing at this final table. On the flip side, can Daniel Santoro ride his dominating chip lead to a victory? You’ll have to tune in on Sunday night to see.

As always, there will be plenty of analysis, including The Raw Deal with Tony Dunst (who analyzes the eventual heads-up match in this episode),  and interviews, including a 5 Questions segment with Will “The Thrill” Failla, for a well-rounded view of this WPT event and the World Poker Tour as a whole. On top of that, get a look behind the scenes of the WPT in another segment of WPT On the Road that you won’t want to miss (hint: Royal Flush Girls on stage in lingerie).

There’s plenty for everyone, so make sure to tune in to, or set your DVRs for, FSN on Sunday night at 8pm and 11pm local time.
