GUIDE TO THE WSOP MAIN EVENT FINAL TABLE

There are nine players left competing for the title of reigning World Champion of Poker – the World Series of Poker Main Event World Championship – where they are set to battle for $27 million in prize money, including a whopping $8.5 million for the winner.

Final table play resumes on SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 7 at 12 Noon Pacific Time in the Penn & Teller Theater at the Rio All-Suites Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Play on Saturday will last as long as it takes to reach two remaining players.

On MONDAY, NOVEMBER 9 at 10 PM Pacific Time, the two finalists return to the Penn & Teller Theater for heads-up action until we have a winner.

On TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 10 at 9 PM Eastern Time, ESPN airs a special 2-hour telecast featuring the action from Saturday and Monday’s final table play.

TICKETS: There are no tickets to the event, nor is there a cost to attend the event. All seating is on a first come first serve basis and available to anyone 21 years of age or older based on capacity limits.

For Saturday’s session, open seating is extremely limited. Wait time for general admission is likely to be long and admittance is not guaranteed. Each player will be given a priority allotment of reserved seats for friends and family and general seating is unlikely to become available until some players have been eliminated.

On Monday, November 9, with only two players set to begin play at 10 PM, it is anticipated the general public will have plenty of available seating to watch the dramatic conclusion to poker’s biggest tournament. The general public can begin lining up outside the Penn & Teller Theater at 9 PM, with seating on a first come first serve basis. The general public is expected to be let into the theater shortly before play begins.
