With 137 participants fighting for a total prize pool of $996,675, this certified World Poker Tour event was expected to be a really tough one right from the very start.

From September 25 to 30, 2007, the participants engaged in highly exciting and fast-paced poker tournament. With all eyes set on some of the greatest poker players of today, the Turks and Caicos Poker Classic served as an excellent battleground for poker supremacy. Comprised of long-time poker professionals and outstanding new poker superstars, the event concluded in dramatic fashion, while being another great addition to the rich record books of the World Poker Tour.

As the action continued, the spectators watched out for the seating positions and starting chip counts of the players who reached the final table of the Turks and Caicos Poker Classic. Being two of the most significant factors that can be of great influence into a game, it is worthwhile to look at how the different players were seated in this prestigious poker tournament. After all things were set for an emphatic climax, the final table event concluded on September 30, 2007.

After days of grueling action and non-stop poker competition, the seats were pre-assigned before the action ensued at the final table of the Turks and Caicos Poker Classic. Despite finishing with only 232,000 chips after the elimination round, which is good for last place among the remaining tournament contenders, Nam Le was seated first at the table. Meanwhile, Erik Cajelais was seated second with the highest chip total among the remaining participants with 1,086,000.

Moving on with the next four finalists for this prestigious poker tournament, seats four to six were occupied by other equally talented contenders. With a total of 275,000, Rhynie Campbell owns the third seat of this Turks and Caicos event. The fourth seat belongs to Chris Smith, accumulating a total of 301,000 chips after the eliminations. Meanwhile, Trevor Hebert owned the fifth seat after ending the elimination round with 400,000 chips. Lastly, Alan Sass completes the table by bringing in 466,000 starting chips.

The action picked up very fast in the final table event of the Turks and Caicos Poker Classic. First to get eliminated from the poker tournament was Nam Le, who committed some critical mistakes early on the game. Soon thereafter, Hebert is ousted from the title run after making some wrong moves of his own. Smith and Sass later became the third and fourth casualties of the game, leaving Cajelais and Campbell for the final run. After showing no signs of giving in, Cajelais soon found out that his cards are inferior to that of Campbell, giving the title to the latter together with the sparkling $436,675-pot.
