8 players started the final table of the EPT London tournament's $5,000 Main Event, with varying chip counts:

Chair 1: David Vamplew - 3,670,000
Chair 2: Tom Marchese - 1,480,000
Chair 3: Fernando Brito - 1,100,000
Chair 4: Per Ummer - 1,245,000
Chair 5: Artur Wasek - 2,250,000
Chair 6: Kayvan Payman - 1,295,000
Chair 7: Kyle Bowker - 7,165,000
Chair 8: John Juanda - 7,075,000


Per Ummer was the first to depart, followed by Tom Marchese, the Portuguese Fernando Brito, Kayvan Payman and the Polish giant, Artur Wasek. Three-handed, it was nearly impossible to predict who will win. Kyle Bowker missed his chance of playing the final heads-up with an unlucky hand against Juanda. He showed pocket J's against Juanda's pocket T's, and with an unlucky twist Juanda hit a flush with his ten of clubs.
