The World Series of Poker Main Event had a record number of entrants this year, 10,112.<\/p>\n

Now, it\u2019s down to the Final Table of nine players.<\/p>\n

The winner will take home $10 million and the WSOP Main Event gold bracelet. For a pursuit dominated by men (no Main Event has ever had even 5% participation by women, as far as we know), poker players are really, really into jewelry.<\/p>\n

We keep hoping for a WSOP nose chain, but no luck.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Each of the nine players you\u2019ve never heard of is guaranteed at least $1 million for getting this far.<\/p>\n

It costs $10,000 to enter the Main Event, one of many tournaments within the World Series of Poker, played at Horseshoe and Paris.<\/p>\n

The Main Event prize pool was more than $94 million. The top 1,517 players win money.<\/p>\n

The final nine are Jordan Griff, Brian Kim, Niklas Astedt, Joe Serock, Jason Sagle, Boris Angelov, Jonathan Tamayo, Malo Latinois and Andres Gonzalez.<\/p>\n

The players are from the U.S., Sweden, Canada, Bulgaria and Spain.<\/p>\n

You can find out about all the players here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
