Day 5 of the 2005 WSOP Main Event is set to begin in a few hours and there have been a few major changes in the leaderboard sice yesterday at this time.  The top 10 chip leaders are:

1st- [b]Tim Phan[/b] $2,500,000
2nd- [b]Phil Ivey[/b] $1,210,000
3rd- [b]Tex Barch[/b] $1,200,000
4th- [b]Farzad Bonyati[/b] $1,810,000
5th- [b]Hon Lee[/b] $1,800,000
6th- [b]Ray Sanchez[/b] $1,700,000
7th- [b]Mike Matusow[/b] $1,500,000
8th- [b]Stephen Marx[/b] $1,400,000
9th- [b]Patrick Hayden[/b] $1,400,000
10th-[b]Minh Ly[/b] $1,350,000

Other noteable chip counts after day 3 are:

11th-[b]Greg Raymer[/b] $1,300,000
19th-[b]John Juanda[/b] $960,000
27th-[b]Kenna James[/b] $780,000
28th-[b]Lee Watkinson[/b] $780,000
43rd-[b]Dustin "Neverwin" Wolfe[/b] $520,000

76 players remain in the competition.  Today the field will be chipped away until the final table of 9 playrs will be decided.  The final table will then take place tomorrow and the winner of the gold bracelet, title of worlds champ, and the 7.5 million dollars will be crowned.  If a few players make some decent moves today we could see a great final table on ESPN when this airs.

[B]My ideal final table from the remaining players would be:[/b]

[B]Mike "the mouth" Matusow[/b] in seat 1 (do I need to explain why I want him there?)

[B]Greg "fossilman" Raymer[/b] in seat 2 (if he repeats it will be the biggest feat in modern poker history, possibly of all time...and because Mike Matusow is there)

[b]Kenna James[/b] seat 3 (everyone likes a gay cowboy, JK...he's a nice, down to earth guy)

[B]Phil Ivey[/b] in seat 4 (he has icewater in his veins and he hasn't gotten the recognition he deserves, plus he went out on a [b]bad[/b] beat in 2004)

[B]Lee Watkinson[/b] in seat 5 (because he's a pro)

[B]John Juanda[/b] in seat 6 (because he's good)

[B]Dustin "neverwin" Woolfe[/b] seat 7 (because he's an internet pro, has a cool website with a forum, and has had a great WSOP run)

[B]Minh Ly[/b] in seat 8 (because he and Matusow like to joke and gaff one another)

[B]Tim Phan[/b] in seat 9 (only because he seems like a powerhouse and we need a Cinderella story)

Unless there are some real characters amongst the unknowns, this would be about the most interesting final table out of the remaining players, in my opinion.
