Australian WSOP bracelet winner Martin Kozlov headlines a WPT Australia final table that also features 19-year-old Gary Lin, who looks to become one of the youngest WPT champions in history.
After an intense 12-hour Day 3, almost half of which was spent playing down from nine to six, the final table of WPT Australia is finally locked in.
From a field of 600 entries at The Star Gold Coast who put up the AUD$8,000, these six players each hope to add their name to the Mike Sexton WPT Champions Cup on Wednesday and take home the $550,267 first-place prize.
Despite a long Day 3, the average stack will sit at over 50 big blinds when play resumes. Chip leader Romain Morvan has the inside track before a single card is pitched into the air however four of the other five players could double up and take over the top spot at any time.
Gary Lin , who held the chip lead himself at the end of the night on Day 2 and Day 3, is in the mix as he looks to complete a strong run in which he never bagged worse than 11th (which he did on Day 1). World Series of Poker bracelet winner Martin Kozlov is directly in the hunt. Nino Marotta has major final table experience of his own, with a pair of deep Aussie Millions runs to his name. Richard Lee will multiply his lifetime earnings no matter where he finishes. And sitting on the short stack, Ken Demlakian is far from out of it, either.
Play is set to resume Wednesday morning at 11:30 a.m. local time in Australia, with a live stream set to kick off 30 minutes later at noon (10 p.m. EST/7 p.m. PST Tuesday in the United States).
