WSOP Main Event Episode Crowns Winner Tonight on ESPN

Every Tuesday night since Aug. 18, viewers have been tuning in to ESPN to watch the World Series of Poker main event field dwindle from 6,494 to just nine, and tonight at 9 p.m. ET, the world will see the newest world champion crowned.

The stage was set for drama as the November Nine reconvened after a four-month long hiatus. Story lines resumed as everyone wondered who would emerge as the last player standing. Will the incomparable experience of Phil Ivey prove too much for the amateurs at the table? Or will the logger, Darvin Moon, take his chip lead to the end to win the more than $8.5 million top prize?

The following are the seat positions and chip counts as the final table began:

Seat 1 — Darvin Moon — 58,930,000
Seat 2 — James Akenhead — 6,800,000
Seat 3 — Phil Ivey — 9,765,000
Seat 4 — Kevin Schaffel — 12,390,000
Seat 5 — Steven Begleiter — 29,885,000
Seat 6 — Eric Buchman — 34,800,000
Seat 7 — Joseph Cada — 13,215,000
Seat 8 — Antoine Saout — 9,500,000
Seat 9 — Jeff Shulman — 19,580,000
