The World Poker Tour Grand Prix de Paris, after four tough days of tournament play, is now down to only eight players, each within striking distance of a top prize worth €633,902 (about $800,000 USD).

These final eight are currently lead by Theo Jorgensen, whose stack of 2,693,000 in tournament chips, dwarfs all the others by more than 1.5 million. 

Jorgensen, during his short poker career, has already amassed over $1,500,000 playing live tournament poker, however despite this, and the substantial stack, he’s not the only major threat at Saturday’s final table.  Other top players still in the hunt include Jimmy Ostensson (436,000), Per Linde (584,000) and 2007 EPT Prague main event champion Arnaud Mattern (678,000).
