WSOP Event #99: Seiver, Zinno Among 91 Remaining in $5K 8-Handed

Ninety-one players remain in WSOP Event #99, the $5,000 8-Handed No-Limit Hold'em, and the chip leaderboard reads like an all-time earnings index.

Scott Seiver — seven bracelets, 30 career final tables, $10.35M in lifetime tournament cashes — is among the leaders as Day 1 thins toward the money at the Horseshoe/Paris complex in Las Vegas. Seiver's résumé in $5K-and-up events is one of the deepest in WSOP history, and a deep run here would push him past $10.5M.

He isn't short on company. Anthony Zinno, a five-time bracelet winner with $9.1M in career earnings and 54 final tables, is also near the top of the counts. Nicholas Seward (one bracelet, $1.94M lifetime) rounds out the multi-bracelet contingent still in the field.

Two more seven-figure grinders add weight to the remaining 91: Andrew Moreno ($4.31M, 21 final tables) and Finland's Eelis Paerssinen ($4.14M, seven final tables). Between the five named leaders, the combined stat line is 13 bracelets, 124 final tables, and $33.84M in tournament earnings.

Day 2 chip counts and payout information will be posted as they become available on WSOP.com.
