2009 WSOP Europe Final Table
Posted In: Tournaments & Events By: Oliver
The final table has been decided in the 2009 World Series of Poker Europe Main Event. The £10,000 buy-in tournament is currently being held at Leicester Square’s Empire Casino.
The WSOPE main event final table is quite impressive, with 6 bracelet winners making the final 9. But that’s not all, this dream final table actually features two members of the November Nine (the final table of the WSOP Main Event) and the father of a third. Both Britain’s James Akenhead and France’s Antoine Saout have the chance to win both the World Series of Poker Europe Main Event in London as well as the World Series of Poker Main Event in Las Vegas. And Barry Shulman’s son, Jeff Shulman, could make it an all family affair.

Jason Mercier is the current chip leader at the 2009 WSOPE Main Event final table
The final table also features one of poker’s up and coming stars in chip leader Jason Mercier. Mercier has collected over $3.3 million in earnings from live tournaments, plus an EPT title and a WSOP bracelet. And he has done all of this in less than two years as a poker pro.
Also at the final table is Daniel Negreanu. With more than $11 million in career live tournament winnings, he sits in third place on the list of all time money winners in poker.
This very impressive final table will battle it out for a first prize of £800,000.
The players at the final table are:
- Seat 1: Barry Shulman, 1,090,000
- Seat 2: Jason Mercier, 3,198,000
- Seat 3: Praz Bansi, 1,160,000
- Seat 4: Markus Ristola, 784,000
