The World Series of Poker is in full swing and today there's another $1,000 No-Limit Hold'em tournament on the schedule. This will be event 30 of 62 and it will be the fourth open no-limit hold'em tournament with a buy-in of $1,000. All three of them were big ones with massive fields spread out over several rooms.
| Event | Completed | Players | Winner | First Prize |

| 7 | June 4th | 1,837 | Matt Waxman | $305,952 |

Day 1 starts at noon and the players will be playing eleven one-hour levels. After the sixth level there will be a 90-minute dinner break. The first five levels will be without an ante but starting with level six every player will have to contribute every hand if they want to receive cards. As per usual during the series, players will start with three times the amount of the buy-in as the starting stack: 3,000.
