The final table is set at the inaugural LAPT Panama event in Panama City.
Patrick Mahoney (2012 QJ/PTPR Rank: NR) will have the chip lead once play resumes at the Veneto Hotel & Casino on Sunday where the final eight players will play down to a winner.
Mahoney enjoyed scores in WPT events in Mississippi and Florida in 2011, he has yet to post POY points this season.
One intriguing storyline developing in Panama is that of Sam Razavi (2012 QJ/PTPR Rank: 130th) and his chase for a PokerStars triple. After a 2011 win at UKIPT Cork in May of 2011, Razavi picked up the biggest cash of his career last month at ANZPT Melbourne.
Razavi will need a lot of help early though as he comes into final table play with an extremely small chip stack.
PokerStars Team Pro Leo Fernandez (2012 QJ/PTPR Rank: NR) is the other feature player at the final table. The Argentinian will start the day only a few chips off the lead.
