2007 World Series of Poker Main Event Day 1D had a batch taking topographic point today. For one we establish out about the race auto clang that Phil Hellmuth Jr. was in. Also the payout agenda came out and first topographic point will pay $8,250,000 to the Main Event champion. On top of that we have got tons of record scene stats, so allows acquire to it!

On Lord'S Day July 8th, Phil Hellmuth was involved in a race auto wreck during a show held at the RIO. He drove the vehicle that was sponsored by Ultimate Stake extremely fast when he hit the cinderblock barricade, and basically the auto was totaled. Phil was pretty shaken, but walked away from the crash. Today July 9th, Phil Hellmuth arrived to play 2 1/2 hours after the start. He pulled up in a limousine wearing a racing uniform and a helmet. There were 11 women representing the 11 watchbands that he won, and they escorted him from the parking lot, through the doors and down the corridor to the Amazon room to take his seat. He stated he was sensitive and stiff, but he have won watchbands being in more than hurting than what he was in after the accident. Once news of the clang was publicly released, some made statements to the consequence that it may have got just been a promotion stunt. Less than four hours later, he busted out of the Main Event. After the proclamation was given of his bust, cheers and clapping were heard everywhere. It seemed that no 1 was sad to see Phil Hellmuth leave.

About the money, it is BIG. First topographic point will have got an blink of an eye millionaire taking place $8,250,000 USD. Asset of those who do the concluding table, the top 5 will go instantaneous millionaires as well. Money will travel to the top 621 finishers. One thing Harrah's have done differently is that the payout agenda was modified to let those who do the money but do not do the concluding table, to make more than than they did in 2006. Basically the program was to distribute the wealth. For example, according to Harrah's the 2006 Main Event would have got paid $22,266 for 873rd through 775th places, up from the scope of $14,605 to $15,512 in 2006. And the Main Event victor would have got been paid $10,028,715, down from $12 million, with the smuggler up receiving $5,442,769, compared with $6,105,900. What this have got achieved in 2007 is that last topographic point will gain $20,320, which is significantly more than than the $14,597 they would have seen last year.

In all, the 2007 WSOP generated a sum award pool of $159,796,918, with $59,796,918 of that just for the Main Event itself.
