Second in chips entering Day 3 is Germany's Christoph Vogelsang with 4.765 million. An impressive player with over $5.7 million in live tournament earnings, Vogelsang is as calm and collected of poker player as they come.
Almost all of Vogelsang's live tournament results have come in big buy-in competitions.

His best result to date was a third-place finish in the 2014 World Series of Poker $1,000,000 Big One for One Drop — the same event that another member of this final nine, Paul Newey, took seventh in. There Vogelsang earned $4.48 million for his finish.
