The ,000 buy-in No-Limit Hold’em tournament attracted a star-studded field of 152 entries. Another 483 re-buys increased the total prize pool to ,085,930. The top 18 finishers (final two tables) collected prize money.

The final table included four former WSOP gold bracelet winners, with a combined 28 victories between them. This eclipsed the previous all-time record set in the 2006 H.O.R.S.E. World Championship when there were a combined 27 victories between the nine finalists.

A potential dream heads-up matchup between the two all-time WSOP record gold bracelet winners Phil Hellmuth and Johnny Chan never materialized.
