WPT Jacksonville 2012: Noah Schwartz chip leader of the final table
While Denmark welcomes the first day of the WPT Copenhagen, the WPT Jacksonville reached its final table on the other side of the Atlantic. This step on the American soil of the WPT assembled a field of 477 players but only 28 players were selected at the start of the Day 3. After 14 hours of play, there were only six players for the final table. Noah Schwartz is the chipleader of the final table and is already on track for his first poker title with his well stocked stack representing nearly the half of the chips in this final. In fact, Schwartz has 6,255,000 chips while his pursuer has less than 2 million chips. Hans Winzeler who occupies the second place in the chip count has 1,965,000 chips and the rest of the field is just behind like Brian Senie (1,865,000), Lee Markholt (1.72 million), Ryan Hartmann (1,400,000) and Byron Kaverman (1,075,000).
Lee Markholt is in the 4th place of the chip count and is vying for a second victory at the World Poker Tour. Markholt found for the second time the final table of the Main Event of the World Poker Tour after his victory at Reno four years ago. At the final table, the first player eliminated will walk away with $ 61,819 of gain while the winner will pocket $ 402,970. The runner-up will pocket $ 236,592 for his part, $ 153,403 for the 3rd, $ 106,848 for the 4th and $ 77,083 for the 5th.
