2007 World Series of Poker - Prop Bet - Who Reaches the Final Table?

July 6th, 2007, will see the beginning of another World Series of Poker Main Event. Sure, there are plenty of other card games to challenge a player's skill, but nothing quite captures the imagination of the public like No Limit Texas Hold'em.

And for those of us who don't have the patience to wait for July, you'll be happy to know that we can bet on the outcome right now. More specifically, you can log onto Betus.com and wager on who will make the Final Table of the WSOP Main Event. By the way, keep in mind that 9 players will make it to this point, so you've at least got a little wiggle room.

Here they are (there are others who are not included on this list):

Phil Ivey +1400
Phil Hellmuth +2500
Chris 'Jesus' Ferguson +2500
Daniel Negreanu +1800
Erik Seidel +4000
Scotty Nguyen +4000
Dan Harrington +4000
Johnny Chan +3000
Gus Hansen +3000
Howard Lederer +4000
Dave 'Devilfish' Ulliot +4000
John Juanda +4000
Erick Lindgren +5000
Michael 'The Grinder' Mizrachi +4000
Carlos Mortenson +5000
Scott Fischman +5000
Mike Matusow +5000
Phil Laak +5000
Antonio Esfandiari +4000

Humberto Brenes +6500
Layne Flack +6500
Jamie Gold +6500
David Benyamine +6500
Huck Seed +6500
Mel Judah +6500

Doyle Brunson +8000
Freddy Deeb +8000
Joseph Hachem +8000
Ben Affleck +15000
Matt Damon +15000
Jennifer Tilly +8000

You know it's a tough event when the defending champion (Jamie Gold) is a +6500 underdog to make the final table. But that's the charm (and the challenge) of the WSOP Main Event. Success one year means nothing the next. Still, with odds like these, why not drop a $100 on your favorite gambler? If they can just make it to the final 9, you may find yourself cleaning up on +6500 (or greater) odds. Hard to pass up that kind of opportunity.
