Event #6: $580 No-Limit Hold'em 6-Handed Re-entry

Right near the start of Level 18, the field was reduced to a final table of seven. Here's the lineup:

Seat 1: Steve Hagar - 225,000 (38 bb)
Seat 2: Greg Baird - 174,000 (29 bb)
Seat 3: Gary Lucci - 390,000 (65 bb)
Seat 4: Bryce McVay - 99,000 (17 bb)
Seat 5: Carey Pickus - 95,000 (16 bb)
Seat 6: Ari Engel - 282,000 (47 bb)
Seat 7: Dimitry Agrachov - 520,000 (87 bb)

Ari Engel is already an eight-time winner on the WSOP Circuit and one of the tour's most successful players. Another win would move him to within one of the all-time lead of 10. Gary Lucci is the only other ring winner at the table, although Bryce McVay is fresh off a near-miss in Event #4. 

Blinds are 3,000/6,000 with a 1,000 ante in the current level, so the average stack is about 42 big blinds. Play is scheduled to conclude after Level 21, but that may be revisited depending on the pace over the next two hours.

Everyone left is guaranteed to earn at least $2,634.
