2007 World Series of Poker
2007 års World Series of Poker (WSOP) startet den 1. juni 2007. Main Event startet den 6. juli og var avklart 18. juli. Alle event ble avholdt i Rio All Suite Hotel and Casino i Las Vegas, Nevada av Harrah's Entertainment, som har arrangert WSOP siden 2004.
Dette var første gang som hver spiller begynte med dobbelt så mye merker som inkjøpssummen motsvarte. Dette betyr at alla deltagere i Main Event begynte med 20 000 i marker. Mørkerstrukturen økte også i og med detta og vissa mörkernivåer togs bort, slik at mer spel kunnee äga rum.
Det HORSE-event som introducerades under World Series of Poker 2006, med ett inköp på $50 000, återfanns på schemat även detta år, men med skillnaden att finalbordet inte spelades i No Limit Texas Hold'em-format, utan H.O.R.S.E. hela tävlingen igenom. Ytterligare två H.O.R.S.E.-event spelades även under årets WSOP, med längre inköpsummer; dessa på $2 500 respektive $5 000.
Tom Schneider, som vant to event og lyktes ta seg til enda et finalbord, vant "Player of the Year Award".
2007 var også første gang som WSOP utvidgades utenfor Las Vegas, i form av World Series of Poker Europe (WSOPE), se under.
