The 2016 World Series of Poker’s November Nine has been set. After eight gruelling days which saw 6,737 players from 79 different countries battle it out for the US$8 million top prize and the prestigious Main Event bracelet, just nine players remain with each guaranteed at least US$1 million in prize money.
Although Hong Kong’s Kakwan Lau fell just short yesterday – finishing 20th – the remaining players represent five different nations – Belgium, Canada, the Czech Republic, Spain and the USA.
Leading the way is Cliff Josephy from New York. The oldest remaining player in the field, Josephy has already won two WSOP bracelets and is in good shape to create his own slice of history.
The November Nine are as follows:
Cliff Josephy – 74,600,000
Qui Nguyen – 67,925,000
Gordon Vayo – 49,375,000
Kenny Hallaert – 43,325,000
Michael Ruane – 31,600,000
Vojtech Ruzicka – 27,300,000
Griffin Benger – 26,175,000
Jerry Wong – 10,175,000
Fernando Pons – 6,150,000
