One of the great stories at this main event has been the story of Floyd Vanderford. He won his way into the event on a $65 satellite and wound up finishing third in the event for $107,699. He was seen earlier in the crowd, all smiles, chatting it up with other players and spectators. In fact, he just went over to receive his payout for the event.
