One player who will try and stop Hellmuth from earning #14 is chip leader Todd Brunson. Not only will Brunson try to earn bracelet #2 later today, he will be attempting to prevent the Poker Brat from gaining a four-bracelet lead on his father, Doyle.

Another player to make the final table is 90-year-old poker pioneer Henry Orenstein. Orenstein can be thanked for poker being so popular and interesting on television as he was the inventor of the hole card cam. Without Orenstein’s brilliant invention, we would still be watching poker without knowing what players were holding.
