Nikolay Evdakov led all players with a record 10 money finishes, and <a href="/wiki/Phil_Hellmuth" title="Phil Hellmuth">Phil Hellmuth</a> set a WSOP record of 41 career final tables. The Main Event, which began with 6,844 participants (a level exceeded only by the number of participants at the <a href="/wiki/2006_World_Series_of_Poker" title="2006 World Series of Poker">2006 event</a>), was suspended once the event was down to the 9 players needed for the <a href="/wiki/November_Nine" title="November Nine">final table</a>; the Main Event was resumed on November 9, and concluded with the heads-up final between <a href="/wiki/Peter_Eastgate" title="Peter Eastgate">Peter Eastgate</a> and <a href="/wiki/Ivan_Demidov" title="Ivan Demidov">Ivan Demidov</a> the next day. This year was the first in which the Main Event was suspended in this fashion, a change introduced at <a href="/wiki/ESPN" title="ESPN">ESPN</a>'s request to allow the TV network to do a same-day Main Event broadcast. </p><p>In a stunning statistical improbability, Justin Phillips knocked out Motoyuki Mabuchi in the Main Event.
