The Main Event is the largest tournament and the world championship of the 2006 WSOP. The tournament, like every WSOP Main Event, is a $10,000 No-Limit Texas Hold'em event. Due to the 8,773-player field, there were 4 separate starting days (1A-1D), each playing down to 800 people.
Along with the usual $10,000 chip stacks, a new feature to the WSOP was the "All-In" button. Tournament directors have informed the participants that the coin could be used in lieu of pushing all of one’s chips into the pot.
For the first time in World Series of Poker History, a $100,000 chip was introduced on day 7. Its color is described as mint green with chocolate. |
