One of the purposes of delaying the final table until November was to give players a chance to attract big sponsors before the final table. Ylon Schwartz is now selling "Nascar-style advertising" on his person on eBay. The auction starts at $35,000, but Schwartz is expecting a price from $100-300 K for each advertising patch. Schwartz is the number five in chips among the remaining nine players in the 2008 WSOP Main Event. He placed 15 in a $2,000 no limit holdem event in WSOP2008 and has a total of 11 WSOP cashes before the Main Event. | Ylon Schwartz is number five in chips when the WSOP final table starts |
