There’s a lot going on down at the 2012 World Series of Poker tonight and it centers around the action at two final tables. One features a Phil gunning for his record 12th career bracelet. The other features a Phil looking for his ninth after a summer-long hiatus from the game.

Keep reading for additional information on each event and be sure to follow along with the action on 2012 WSOP landing page.

Event No. 17 — $10,000 Pot-Limit Hold’em

In event no. 17, Phil Ivey finds himself with the chip lead thanks to a gift double from Shaun Deeb when his aces held against pocket fours.

There’s nearly half of a million dollars on the line and a high caliber of player at the final table to justify it. Along with Ivey and Deeb sit bracelet winners Andy Frankenberger and Hoyt Corkins along with other notables such as Manuel Bevand, Alex Venovski, Ali Eslami and Matt Marafioti.

Here’s a look at the remaining prize pool.

Event No. 18 — $2,500 Seven Card Razz

Over in event no. 18, Phil Hellmuth find himself near the top of a stacked final table that boasts 19 total WSOP bracelets, 11 of which belong to the big guy himself.

In fact, the only people at the table who don’t have a WSOP win on their resume are Don Zewin and Jeff Misteff. Should Hellmuth win, it would be his first career non-hold’em bracelet.

Other notables at the final table include Barry Greenstein, who is looking for his fourth bracelet after finishing runner-up to Andy Bloch in event no. 7 and fellow bracelet winners Scott Fischman, Brandon Cantu, Michael Chow and Brendan Taylor.

Here’s a look at the remaining prize pool.
