David Tran leads the way heading into the final day of the World Poker Tour's (WPT) Borgata Poker Classic.
His 5,271,000-strong chip stack gives him a marginal lead over Gavin Griffin, who lies in second place on 5,105,000, according to Card Player.
The other seats at the final table are taken up by Lee Watkinson, Thomas Hare, Noah Schwartz and Ervin Prifti.
Men Nguyen - six-time World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet winner - and Justin Bonomo both made the last ten but narrowly missed out on the final table.
Out of the remaining six players, Lee Watkinson has by far the best record at the WPT, having cashed 11 times and finished second on two occasions.
He also has the most impressive career winnings at $3,462,025 and a WSOP bracelet from 2006.
Last year's Borgata event was won by John Hennigan, who took home $1,606,223.
