The final table of six has emerged from the field of 862 players at the partypoker WPT Montreal Main Event at the Playground Poker Club in Canada. It took over seven hours of play on Wednesday to play down from the final 18 players to the television table and play was much slower than the last two days of quick play. Here is a look at the final table seating chart with chip counts for when play starts tomorrow at 4 p.m. ET.
Seat 1: Serge Cantin – 6,960,000 (116 bb)
Seat 2: Mukul Pahuja – 5,945,000 (99 bb)
Seat 3; Derrick Rosenbarger – 1,985,000 (33 bb)
Seat 4: Alexandre Lavigne – 2,150,000 (35 bb)
Seat 5: Lily Kiletto – 370,000 (6 bb)
Seat 6: Sylvain Siebert – 8,435,000 (140 bb)
The chip leader is Sylvain Siebert with 8,435,000 but he faces some challengers in previous WPT final-table contestant Lily Kiletto and experienced pro Mukul Pahuja. We will see which player emerges with the WPT Champions Cup and top prize worth $500,824 tomorrow. Here is a look at the prize money up for grabs at the final table.
1: $500,824
2: $340,928
3: $220,170
4: $162,936
5: $121,848
6: $98,574
We lost some big names along the way to the final table today with WPT Champions Club member Jonathan Little busting in 17th place, Patrick Eskandar leaving in 14th place, David Paredes exiting in 12th place, Griffin Benger out in 11th place, and Ludovic Lacay falling in ninth place. They all took home prize money but fell just short of making the final table in one of the largest tournaments on the WPT schedule.
