Joseph Cheong is the seventh player eliminated at the WSOP final table, earning $4,130,049 for his third place finish. Which means that on Monday night at 8pm PST, Jonathan Duhamel will go one on one with John Racener for ultimate poker bragging rights (for the next 12 months, at least). Duhamel has a commanding chip lead over Racener (188,950,000 vs. 30,750,000), but like they say, that’s why they play the games.
The rest of the nine cashed out as follows:
4. Filippo Candio – $3,092,545
5. Michael Mizrachi – $2,332,992
6. John Dolan – $1,772,959
7. Jason Senti – $1,356,720
8. Matthew Jarvis – $1,045,743
