World Series Of Poker Championship 2008

Poker's biggest event started on July 3rd, and is currently in the official day 4 of the tournament. There were 6844 players this year, which is up from last year, and the top prize will be a little over $9.1 million dollars.

There's currently 474 players left, and there's a few big names still left. Gus Hansen, Allen Cunningham, Evelyn Ng, Mike Matusow, Hoyt Corkins and Phil Hellmuth are all still in it. They started paying out at the 606 position, so all of them are also in the money.

You can follow the tourney at the WSOP site HERE, and they seem to be doing a pretty good job of keeping things up to date and you can set the site to refresh automatically.
