The final table for the $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em Shootout has gotten underway.  The players are competing for $264, 107 and the gold bracelet. Due to the tournament's structure, which mirrors a number of successive single table sit-and-gos, the players will all start with the same amount of chips: $300,000. Play begins at level one for round three,  with blinds of $3,000 -$6,000 with a $1,000. The seating assignments are as follows:

Seat 1- Don Baruch
Seat 2- Daniel Negreanu
Seat 3- Jared Davis
Seat 4- Thomas Fuller
Seat 5 - Fred Goldberg
Seat 6- Brendan Lee
Seat 7 - Michael Wehner
Seat 8- Doug Bougham
Seat 9- Erick Lindgren

This is Daniel Negreanu's first final table this year, and he is surely hungry for the win. Erick Lindgren came in 9th in this event in 2005 and finished second to Jeff Madsen last year.  With no World Series of Poker bracelets as of yet, he is definitely coming into this final table with his sights set on first. The unique format of this tournament combined with the great lineup are sure to make for an interesting and entertaining final table, so be sure to check in for bust outs and hourly updates here at Cardplayer.com.
