As it stands Gieles, our chip leader, is the least experienced player at the table, and here's a look at the finalists ranked by all-time live tournament earnings. It's clear that Juanda, who's a part of the Poker Hall of Fame, leads the way, as he's ranked ninth on the global all-time money list, but he comes into the day as the short stack. On the other hand, Luuk Gieles sits at the bottom of this list, but he's the tournament chip leader.
A win by Gieles today would only make him surpass Dvoress in live tournament earnings, to give an idea of how stacked this final table really is.
