Table 9 has all of the chips in play and a fewer amount of players. It's been shown that no one seated at this table is going to shy away from a big pot so we could see some fireworks early on in the day.
Over on the other table, Table 8, Dan Sing will be looking to climb out of the gutter with his short stack and reach the final table. Jani Karke admitted at the end of yesterday's play that he's never had such a roller coaster ride in a tournament. He's close to the bottom with only 70,000 chips, but isn't too worried that he should be able to capitalize on some opportunities at his table. Also on that table is the single woman left in the tournament, Wai Yuen.
Play will begin at 12:15 PM local time and you can bet you'll find all the action right here. We'll see you then!
