It's a Mad rush to the final title of season as the 2011-12 WPT season is coming to a close - and "Mad" Marvin Rettenmaier is making sure that everyone knows that he's arrived in America, and he's ready for two months of work!
The Mad German leads the final nine players remaining at the WPT World Championship at Bellagio. The 25K buy-in event drew 152 players, many of them are already name players on tour including Rettenmaier, who flirted with the PTPR Player of the Year title early in 2011.
The Grinder, Michael Mizrachi, is second in chips, only Grinder and Rettenmaier hold chips stacks above 2M, in fact, they both have over 3M in chips.
Hafiz Khan, Steve O'Dwyer (making a triumphant return from Europe), "The Takeover" Nick Schulman and WPT Bay 101 winner Moon Kim highlight the other notables still alive at Bellagio.
