Tons of movement in Austria as the final 8 players at WPT Vienna are now known.
Firstly, WSOP bracelet holder Pascal Lefrancois had major highs and major lows late in the day, unfortunately, he is the bubble player with a 9th place finish.
Alex Kuzmin couldn't do better than 11th but, the 15 PTPR Points he just picked up have moved him up to 4th overall on the PTPR Points Leaderboard.
Dmitry Gromov (pictured) enters final table play as the chip leader.
Qualifier Simon Ravnsbaek is still alive and sits second in chips - he could become the second qualifier in a month to win a WPT Main Event (Alan Sternberg won WPT Bay 101's Shooting Star two weeks ago).
But most eyes are on Alessio Isaia, who has earned his 3rd PTPR Score of the season with this Top 18 finish, will see how far up the PTPR Leaderboard he can get. Isaia will surpass Galen Hall for 2nd overall on the PTPR Leaderboard as he is assured to collect 15 PTPR Points. But if Isaia can survive one elimination, he will re-take the #1 spot on the 2011 PTPR Player of the Year Leaderboard.
