Who Will Walk Away with the $148,587 Top Prize in the HPT St. Louis?
The 2019 Heartland Poker Tour (HPT) St. Louis began with 444 entrants but is now down to the final table of nine. Leading the way is 2018 Indiana State Poker Champion Tim Burden who bagged up a massive 3.8 million.
However, most of the players are relatively deep in relation to the blinds and given the stacked lineup that includes MSPT Hall of Famer Kou Vang and MSPT Meskwaki Champ Keith Heine, it really is anyone's game.
Here's a look at how things stack up at the final table, which will be live streamed (without hole cards per Missouri law) and recorded for a future television broadcast.
