Event #1 saw the youngest bracelet winner record broken as Steve Billirakis triumphs in the $5000 world championship mixed hold'em event aged 21 years 10 days to break Jeff Madsen's record.
Event #3 ($1500 no-limit hold'em) has broken the record for attendance for an event other than the main event with 2,998 players entering.
And the bitching about the way the WSOP is being run as in event 3 players were busting out so fast at one stage that they had to stop the tourney so they could count back and see which order players had exited to get the payouts correct.
There are also quite a few complaints about inexperienced dealers too, especially for the mixed game events.
Oh, and Hellmuth isn't having a great time of it all by the sounds of it either :D
