Almost Ready To Go

The WSOP Main Event final table is set to begin shortly, scheduled for 10:00 p.m. local time. The money has been propped up on the table and staff members are running around like a bunch of busy worker ants trying to complete every last-minute task possible.

The theater itself is about a third of the way full. The bottom section is almost filled to capacity, while the upper section and balcony are waiting to be jammed up with all the spectators waiting in line outside. Said line is about a thousand people long, stringing all the way around the corner and down the long hallway of the Rio convention center.

Phil Hellmuth is meandering around the stage area with his iPhone taking a video, while Dennis Phillips is posing for photos with fans. Paul Darden, Mike Carol, Joe Sebok, and Cliff "JohnnyBax" Josephy are also on hand to find out who'll be the next world champion of poker.

We're anticipating a slightly-past-ten start, but keep it locked right here for the latest.
