The Event #8: $25,200 No-Limit Hold'em final table is set at the 2024 U.S. Poker Open, and Stephen Chidwick holds the chip lead. Chidwick leads ahead of Andrew Lichtenberger, Brandon Wittmeyer, Dan Smith, Cary Katz, Jesse Lonis, and Aram Zobian, as the final seven players battle for the $429,000 first-place prize. Zobian currently sits atop the U.S. Poker Open leaderboard, and if he can finish in fifth place or better, he will lock up the Golden Eagle Trophy. If Lonis can win and see Zobian eliminated in sixth or seventh, he'll win the U.S. Poker Open Golden Eagle Trophy and a $25,000 PGT Passport.
