The field has now been narrowed down to 64 players out of the 6,494 that began the tournament.  Suddenly, the 2009 World Series of Poker has become a nail-biter.

Will Phil Ivey be heading to the final table?

If the 2009 World Series of Poker were to end right now, Ivey would be there, along with Antonio Esfandiari.

Leo Margets is the only female left in the competition and it will be exciting to see how she performs.

Also in the running is 2008’s third place WSOP main event winner, Dennis Phillips.  Joe Sebok is hanging by a thread as well.

“Incredible to still be kicking somehow in this thing,” Sebok said. “Fight the fight until the fight is through.”
