Online casino PaddyPower.com has opened betting on the
WSOP 2007 Main Event.
The first markets to go live on the world's largest and most
prestigious poker
tournament are 'number of entrants' and 'to make final table.'
The affect of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act
of 2006 on tournament numbers has caused massive speculation which
makes this a difficult market to predict.
Many poker companies
have pulled out of the US market, and with over half the 2006
main event field believed to have been online qualifiers, this
could have a drastic impact.
It is widely believed that felt that the record 8,773 players
who battled it out for a prize pool of over $87 million last year
will not be bettered in 2007.
The event kicks of on June 1, 2007, at the Rio All-Suite Hotel
& Casino, with the final table of the $10,000 buy-in No Limit
Texas Hold'em World Championship beginning July 17.
