We've come to know the World Series of Poker Main Event as an event like none other. It's incomparable to anything but itself, and it stands alone atop the poker mountain. The combination of the ultimate poker achievement, a $10,000 investment, and a return that could yield multiple millions of dollars — or even multiple hundreds of thousands of dollars — for more than just the winner attract thousands of players, gamblers, and dreamers from all walks of life, all across the globe.
Tuesday night, Day 1c of the 2015 edition concluded. It was the third and final starting flight of this year's Main Event, and players, fans, media, and industry members all waited on one thing — the final tally of entries in the "grand daddy of them all" and the prize pool.
