Seat 1: Leo Margets, Spain (53,400,000 — 33 BB)

Leo Margets is the Last Woman Standing for the second time.

• Career earnings: $2,086,276

The Last Woman Standing is a Spanish pro with over $2 million in earnings and a 27th-place finish in the 2009 Main Event. Margets can be seen all over the European Poker Tour and has a bracelet from The Closer at the 2021 WSOP — the last open event won by a woman. 

Margets vaulted near the top of the leaderboard with a huge pot that knocked out Sergio Veloso in the later part of Day 8. She will return with 53.4M and a chance to become the first woman to win the WSOP Main Event.

Seat 2: Kenny Hallaert, Belgium (80,500,000 — 50 BB)

Kenny Hallaert is at the Main Event final table for the second time.

• Career earnings: $5,925,456

Belgian pro Kenny Hallaert has been here before with a deep run to sixth in the 2016 Main Event. He’s one of the most accomplished players at the table, both live and online, and he has served as a tournament director and PokerStars advisor throughout his years in the game. Hallaert has over $5.9 million in career earnings, topped by a $1.4 million score for his Main Event final table finish, but no WSOP bracelets. 

A wild double knockout to close out Day 6 put Hallaert in control at the top of the counts, where he remained at the end of Day 7. Day 8 was more of the same, and he will return with 63,600,000 for the first part of the final table.

Seat 3: Braxton Dunaway, United States (91,900,000 — 57 BB)

Braxton Dunaway has won his second $1M at the WSOP.

• Career earnings: $1,549,398

More than $1 million of Braxton Dunaway’s $1.5 million in lifetime earnings comes from his bracelet win in the 2023 Monster Stack. This is Dunaway's third cash of the 2025 series, with a 909th, 90th, and a 716th in lower buy-in events. He previously cruised to a 142nd-place finish for $62,500 in the 2022 Main Event.

Dunaway has lingered at the top of the counts in the late stages of the Main, and an early charge on Day 8 gave him the lead. A big pot against Hallaert slowed him down later in the evening, but he will return with 91.9M for Day 9.

Seat 4: John Wasnock, United States (108,100,000 — 68 BB)

John Wasnock absconded with the chip lead late in the evening.

• Career earnings: $143,463

John Wasnock plays most of his poker in his home state of Washington. He’s not a pro and he mostly plays lower stakes, but the 50-year-old chip leader is more than ready for the spotlight after eight days of Main Event play. Notably, he recently picked up some endgame practice with a few wins in smaller tournaments in the Northwest. 

Wasnock will return with 108.1M for Tuesday’s final table, charging from the bottom of the leaderboard to the very top in the late levels on Day 8. 

"This is crazy," he told us at the end of the night.

Seat 5: Michael Mizrachi, United States (93,000,000 — 58 BB)

The Grinder's opponents already hear those familiar footsteps.

• Career earnings: $19,013,562

The Grinder already cemented his legacy at the 2025 WSOP with his seventh bracelet after he won the Poker Player’s Championship for the fourth time. That wasn’t enough for Michael Mizrachi, however, so he’s back on a deep run in the Main Event. He last cashed in the Main Event in 2023 with a 596th place finish for $32,500 and he had a fifth-place finish for $2.3 million in 2010. 

The Grinder put on a show in the late stages of the evening, and the famously loud rail that the Main Event is known for finally showed up. Mizrachi will return with 93M after being down to 1.5 million in the early part of the day.

This is Daehyung Lee’s first Main Event cash, and he only had $148,109 in career earnings prior to the 2025 Main Event. Lee’s resume only dates back to 2024, but he’s picked up cashes throughout Asia, Europe, and during the summer in Las Vegas. His career-best finish is only $34,240, a 12th-place finish in the Asian Poker Tour Main Event in Taipei this April. 

Lee will return with 34.9M and a crack at an extra-large first WSOP bracelet.

Seat 8: Adam Hendrix, United States (48,000,000 — 30 BB)

Adam Hendrix at a Main Event final table was inevitable.

• Career earnings: $8,227,003

The Alaskan native is your favorite poker player's favorite poker player, and he is ready for the big stage after building a strong reputation as a high-stakes pro in NLH and PLO. Adam Hendrix's $8.2 million in career earnings is supported by several wins at the PokerGO Studio, but the closest he has ever come to a WSOP bracelet is a runner-up finish in the $1,500 PLO8 event in 2017. 

Hendrix has been steady throughout the entire event, landing near the top of the chip count printout at the end of almost every evening. He bagged up 48M for the final table.

Minghini can also be seen at WSOP Circuit events and on the online grind throughout the year.
