Starting the 2022 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event final table sixth in chips is Australia��s Adrian Attenborough. The 28-year-old poker pro now resides in Australia and first learned to play poker after being introduced by family and friends when he was just 16 years old.

Prior to his Main Event run, Attenborough had eight WSOP-related cashes totaling $288,248. That included $108,908 for finishing runner-up in the 2019 WSOP International Circuit Sydney $5K Challenge.

According to Hendon Mob, Attenborough had $1,460,049 in career earnings leading up to his 2022 WSOP run. That included a career-best $361,660 for finishing third in the 2017 Bellagio Cup XIII. He also won the 2017 Macau Poker Cup 26 HK$25,000 NLH for $193,172 and took third in the 2017 Asia Poker League Million Sydney Main Event for $91,035.

The 2022 WSOP Main Event saw Attenborough get off to a slow start just slightly increasing his starting stack on Day 1d, though he doubled that on Day 2d and again on Day 3 when the money bubble burst. From there, it was a steady climb each day as Attenborough hit seven figures before cracking eight figures on Day 6.

Attenborough, who is looking to become just the second Australian to win the WSOP Main Event behind Joe Hachem (2005) will start the final table with 50,800,000, which will be 42 big blinds.
