Conor Beresford. His exit in tenth saw $15,550 head to his partypoker account.
The nine finalists sit down for the last time from 7:05 p.m. BST on April 27. Cuellar's 51,699,015 stack towers over that of second-placed
Miguel Lopes' 34,044,013, but a Cuellar victory is far from a forgone conclusion.
That is because there are some superb players among the final nine. Canadian
Chanracy Khun (22,479,712) will certainly fancy his chances of capturing the $267,356 prize because he enters the final table third in chips. So too will the United Kingdom's
Jamie O'Connor (18,729,333) and Lithuanian grinder
Karolis Sereika (16,965,790).
Those players occupying sixth place through ninth have more work to do than the players mentioned above if they are to triumph in this event, but each is capable of turning their fortunes around.
