Jackson Genovesi (2012 QJ/PTPR Rank: NR) will be the chip leader when final table play begins at WPT Malta on Thursday. Genovesi's resume does include a win at the 2010 Poker Grand Prix in St-Vincent, Italy.
The chase group is lead by a man who has not been a stranger to final tables at major events in the last 10 months. Yorane Kerignard (2012 QJ/PTPR Rank: T-472nd) finished in 4th place at EPT Deauville and 5th at the Venetian DeepStacks 2.5K NLH event in 2012 ... he also picked up a 6th place finish at EPT San Remo last October.
Genovesi and Kerignard are the only two players with over 1M in chips.
Although he hasn't scored any PTPR Points in 2012, Alessio Isaia finished the 2011 season ranked 6th overall in the Player of the Year race. Isaia won WPT Venice last year, he was also runner-up to Eugene Katchalov in the 1.5K Seven-Card stud event at the WSOP.
Finnish player Sampo Ryynanen (2012 QJ/PTPR Rank: NR) finished third at the Unibet Open Malta in 2011.
