We have reached final table play at the Venetian Deep Stack Extravaganza III Main Event.
The tournament, which started with 374 runners each putting up 5K to play, has nine players remaining, all hoping to win the Championship, and collect over 400K in the process.
German pro Tim Kahlmeyer enters final table play with the chip lead - he has 1.7M in chips. Kahlmeyer (pictured) has been a very active pro these past few years, collecting many cashes around the world, however, he has yet to collect a big win on the circuit, this title would certainly help solidify his place in poker.
Gary Friedlander is fourth in chips - the WSOPC New Orleans 10K Regional runner-up player is looking for his first title of the season, while popular pro Dan O'Brien - fresh off two PTPR Scores at the WSOP (both in NLH six-handed events) - is looking to get things done early, he's a tad under the average chip count at 813K.
Here are the final table seat assignments/chip counts:
Seat 1 | Anthony Gregg 664K
Seat 2 | Tony Sinishtaj 753K
Seat 3 | Gary Friedlander 998K
Seat 4 | Johnny Neckar 670K
Seat 5 | Dustin Graves 1.6M
Seat 6 | Robert Zlatkiss 571K
Seat 7 | Adam Elpayaa 1.4M
Seat 8 | Tim Kahlmeyer 1.7M
Seat 9 | Daniel O'Brien 813K
Play is set to begin at 2PM Pacific Time.
