PCA Final Table: Eight Players Compete for $1.8M Prize

The final table of the PCA 10 main event featured eight players: Joao Nogueira, Dimitar Danchev, Andrey Shatilov, Owen Crowe, Jerry Wong, Jonathan Roy, Joel Mika, and Yann Dion.

Joao Nogueira won a $10 satellite and traveled from the small Portuguese town of Lagares, with a population of 2,500. Joel Mika, an American, moved to Thailand a year ago and rents a house with friends who are regulars in MTT. Dimitar Danchev is known for a notable hand where the turn was 8h and the river was 5h. Jonathan Roy was relatively unknown before his victory at the WPT Montreal. Yann Dion's biggest offline achievement was reaching the final table of the main event of the Aussie Millions, where he earned $175,011 for 7th place. Owen Crowe is likely the most experienced online regular among the finalists, with over $2.7 million in winnings. Andrey Shatilov is a winner of the GSOP Live in Punta Cana, earning $108,000.
