The nine finalists have been determined and the entire final table is on hold until Nov. 9, when the final nine players return to play down to heads up. Then, on Nov. 10, a winner will be determined.

 

The final nine players seated are (in order of their chip stack):

 Dennis Phillips Ivan Demidov Scott Montgomery Peter Eastgate Ylon Schwartz Darus Suharto David Rheem Craig Marquis Kelly Kim 

The media buzz over the next four months is going to be all about these nine players, so you should probably get acquainted with them!
