And here is the prize pool they’re playing for:

2nd: $383,090
3rd: $251,035
4th: $168,664

* First prize amount includes a $15,400 seat into the season-ending WPT World Championship.
Aaron Kweskin has the most chips, but the eyes of the poker world will be on Freddy Deeb to see if he can join Gus Hansen, Carlos Mortensen, and Anthony Zinno in the elite club of three-time WPT Champions.
The sentimental fan favorite — actor Bill Fagerbakke — was eliminated in 10th place. Fagerbakke is famous for his roles on several long-running TV shows — as Michael “Dauber” Dybinski on the sit-com Coach, as the voice of Patrick Star on Spongebob Squarepants, and as Marvin Eriksen (Marshall’s father) on the sit-com How I Met Your Mother.
The final six players will return Friday afternoon at 4:00 pm PDT for the WPT Final Table. There is no live stream, but as always, there will be live hand-for-hand updates right here at WPT.com, along with updated chip counts after every hand.
