Last Chance for a Shot at Poker Immortality

Welcome back to the Rio Hotel and Casino for our continued coverage of the 2009 World Series of Poker.

Today is Day 1d of the Main Event and we're sure to be in for a wild ride today as a near-capacity field will be hitting the felt for their shot at poker immortality.

Wandering through the halls this morning, the registration booth are already working overtime with a lengthy queue down the hall, with some players getting their first taste of WSOP tilt before a card has even been dealt.

We'll be stretched to all corners of the Rio to bring you all the live action as it unfolds here today. The action kicks off at 12 p.m. local time, which is about 45 minutes from now. Stay tuned!
