With two fewer tables on the set today, the gallery has been expanded to accomodate more spectators. Roughly 100 people have been allowed onto the set to watch the semifinal matches. Phil Hellmuth, Jr., unceremoniously eliminated in the quarterfinals by Bertrand Grospellier, is seated between Phil Hellmuth, Sr. and Johnny "World" Hennigan. Jean Robert Bellande is on Hennigan's right.
On the other side of the room, Daniel Negreanu is watching the proceedings with an interested air but perhaps not as much as Chad Brown, whose fiancee is playing for a berth in the final.
