Seat 2: Byron Kaverman (4,070,000)
Sitting in Seat 2, Byron Kaverman enters the final table second in chips with 4.07 million (around 81 big blinds). Unfortunately for Kaverman, he is seated to the direct right of chip leader Keven Stammen.
Kaverman has just under $2 million in career live tournament earnings, including 11 cashes on the WPT. He has cashed six times in Season XII, tying Keven Stammen, Season XI Player of the Year Matt Salsberg, and others for most cashes in a single season. This is Kaverman's third appearance at a WPT final table - in Season X he finished fourth in the WPT Grand Prix de Paris, and in Season XI he finished runner-up at the WPT Jacksonville bestbet Fall Series.
Kaverman's largest career score came in 2011, when he took down a $5,000 buy-in side event at the PCA for $320,840. He also made a deep run in the 2013 WSOP Main Event, ultimately finishing 34th for $229,281.
With the second-largest stack at the table, Kaverman has some leverage over his competitors, but he will have to find a way to combat the chip leader on his direct left.
