From 1,435 Championship entries, there are now 16 players, and today, they are playing down to the six-handed final table that will play out tomorrow on the live-stream stage.

Darryll Fish, a Hollywood friend and former WPT LHPO champ, leads the return, but there are plenty of tough spots, including fellow WPT champ Matt Wantman.

They are all guaranteed at least $39,000, but they’d like to lock up the $140,000 minimum to make the live-stream final table and ultimately win the $662,200 top prize.

Cards go back in the air with 70:27 remaining in Level 28 and the average stack is about 4,475,000 (36 bb).
