Eyster, who just bagged a Sunday Million win at the end of March to add to his millions in online earnings, is the overall chip leader with 5,680,000.
Madsen on the other hand, most known for being the 2006 WSOP Player of the Year, is fifth in chips with 1,385,000 and will have some work to do to catch the leaders.
After a relatively quiet couple of years, this is Madsen's second WPT final table in less than a year after a sixth-place finish at last year's WPT Legends of Poker.
Rounding out the final six are Paul Dlugozima (4,470,000), Ben Tarzia (2,380,000), Daniel Letts (1,665,000) and Zo Karim (685,000).
Notables to just miss the final table included Faraz Jaka (9th - $38,213), Matt Salsberg (13th - $22,927) and Matt Giannetti (21st - $16,558).

Salsberg Takes Over WPT Player of The Year Lead
While he may have just missed the final table Salsberg did take over the WPT Player of the Year lead from Paul "paulgees84" Volpe.
Both played the tournament but Volpe busted in 27th for just 50 points, leaving him at 2,400 overall.
The 150 points Salsberg earned for 13th pushed him up to 2,500 with three events remaining in the season.
