Paddy Power opens betting on World Series Poker main Event
Online casino Paddy Power has opened the betting on the outcome of the 2008 World Series of Poker Main Event.

The final table will take place in November, with the nine contestants having being decided during a match on Monday.

Dennis Phillips, Ivan Demidov, Scott Montgomery, Peter Eastgate, Ylon Scwartz, Darus Suharto, David Rheem, Craig Marquis and Kelly Kim will all take place in the game.

Chip leader Dennis Phillips is currently the online casino provider's joint favourite, with odds of 4/1 alongside Ivan Demidov.

Kelly Kim has been deemed the most unlikely to prove victorious with odds of 50/1.

For people who are unsure of who they think will actually win, there is the opportunity to have a gamble on the nationality and age of the winner.

According to online news resource Betting Pro, a total of 6,844 players have taken part in this year's competition, which holds a $9.1 million prize pot for the eventual winner.

Poker News reports that a number of celebrities poker fans turned up at the tables of the World Poker Championship, including actress Shannon Elizabeth, who advanced to day two of the tournament.
