Seat 3: Igor Devkin - 435,000 (11bb)

Igor Devkin
Igor Devkin

Igor Devkin is the Rocky Balboa of this final table.

The 23-year old professional poker player is one of three Russians to make it to the final table, and he is playing in only his second-ever World Poker Tour event.

Devkin is an online heads-up cash game player, which probably accounts for his lack of live tournament scores. The Russian moved over the one million-chip mark in Level 22 after eliminating Abbas Morady in 15th place. Devkin turning trip fours on {Q-Spades} {4-Diamonds} {2-Clubs} {4-Spades} at precisely the same time Morady moved all-in holding {A-Clubs} {Q-Clubs}.

With that million chips in tow, Devkin was able to reach the final table where he will start as the table short stack.
