Matt Affleck was eliminated in seventh place at 4.18am (ET) to leave the final six chasing the $661k first prize. The final table is on Wednesday (April 5) so some of the finalists planned to late-reg the $10k, $2m guarantee Seminole Hard Rock Poker Finale which began yesterday.

 

Spanish youngster David Laka is leading the 176 Day 1 survivors in that event – from a starting field of 332. Laka is still under 21 so Florida is one of the only places that he can play in poker tournaments in the United States.

 

There have been a total of 102 events on the Seminole schedule including the WPT Showdown Championship and WPT Seminole Hard Rock Finale which runs through to April 6, both coming with the $2m guarantees. The second ever WPT Tournament of Champions starts April 7.

 

Here are the official chip counts for the Showdown final table, followed by the remaining prize pool:
