WPT COPENHAGEN: FINAL TABLE SET IN DENMARK


The final table at the inaugural WPT Copenhagen Main Event is set for Saturday at Casino Copenhagen in Denmark.

The man sitting in seat #1, Emil Olsson of Sweden, is the chip leader heading into final table play.

Olsson doesn't have many scores in his career - his best moment came at the Malmo Open in 2011. Olsson finished third in that event.

Stanislav Barshak comes into Day 5 play second in chips. Barshak comes off a win at WSOP Hammond - he won the Six-Max prelim event.

Barshak also busted on the TV final table bubble at the WPT Hollywood Poker Open back in April of 2011.

The man with the biggest "big moment" experience is the short stack, Morten Klein. Klein, who finished third at EPT Copenhagen - good for over 250K USD - back in 2010,
will have to battle back in order to better that third place finish.

FINAL TABLE SEAT ASSIGNMENTS/CHIP COUNTS:
Seat 1 | Emil Olsson  2,208,000
Seat 2 | Stanislav Barshak  1,597,000
Seat 3 | Robin Ylitalo  934,000
Seat 4 | Philip Jacobson  742,000
Seat 5 | Jan Djerberg  824,000
Seat 6 | Morten Klein  568,000

On the flipside, it was the end of the road for Steve O'Dwyer during Friday's play. O'Dwyer began the day with one of the smallest chip stacks and was unable to get anything started ... he was the first player out on Friday.
