Let The Final Table Begin!

Welcome back to the Crown Poker Room, where the final eight players of the $5,300 Pot Limit Omaha are about to take their seats!
Needless to say, it's bedlam in here with all the action going on. To make matters worse, the players are kicking up a fuss after the start time was pushed back to 3pm and some of the chips were changed up for T25,000s, leaving them with what would appear to be "short" stacks.
This was due to the fact that the chips were recorded and stored away (as opposed to the traditional "bag and tag" method) after play ceased yesterday.
After having some of those chips changed over for lesser denominations, we're now underway! Here are the eight final table contenders, in order of seat draw:
