World Series of Poker

Day 8 sees just 18 players return in the 2024 World Series of Poker Main Event, and it is Malo Latinois holding the chip lead. Latinois headlines the secondary feature table that includes Jason Sagle, who is third in chips, Malcolm Franchi, who is seventh in chips, and long-time tournament pro Jonathan Tamayo. Four-time WSOP bracelet winner Kristen Foxen headlines the feature table, alongside WSOP bracelet winners Brian Kim, Joe Serock, and Jason James. Also at the table is online phenom Niklas 'Lena900' Astedt and Diogo Coelho, who bagged the second-largest chip stack.

Only 12 players remain on Day 8 of the 2024 World Series of Poker Main Event, and Joe Serock and Brian Kim are running away with the chip lead. Niklas "Lena900" Astedt sits third overall and is closely followed by Jason Sagle, Boris Angelov, Jordan Griff, Malcolm Franchi, and Jonathan Tamayo. On the bottom of the leaderboard, Malo Latinois, Diogo Coelho, Andres Gonzalez, and Gabriel Moura are all trying to ladder up and be part of the final nine.

The record-setting 10,112-entrant field in the 2024 World Series of Poker Main Event is now down to the final table of nine with five countries represented among the final nine players, including Sweden, Canada, Spain, Bulgaria, and the United States. Jordan Griff holds the chip lead ahead of two high-stakes crushers in Brian Kim and Niklas 'Lena900' Astedt. Joe Serock, Jason Sagle, and Boris Angelov sit in the middle of the pack, while Jonathan Tamayo, Malo Latinois, and Andres Gonzalez round out the final table. Players have locked up $1,000,000 in prize money, but all eyes are on the $10,000,000 first-place prize, prestigious WSOP Main Event bracelet, and the title of the 2024 World Champion.

The 2024 World Series of Poker Main Event is down to just three players from the 10,112 entrants that began two weeks ago. The final three are led by Sweden's Niklas Astedt, while Americans Jonathan Tamayo and Jordan Griff trail. Griff was the overnight chip leader but will enter as the shortest stack with 187 million, while Tamayo has risen to second overall with 197 million. Astedt is leading the charge with 223 million and is best positioned to make a run at winning the big one. The final three have locked up $4 million in prize money, but everyone is eying the $10 million first-place prize, coveted WSOP Main Event bracelet, and title of 2024 World Champion.
