There are now only 64 players remaining as Day 7 gets underway at the 2009 WSOP Main Event, and only one of them is a woman. That singular female in the field – Leo Margets – was awarded the Last Woman Standing Cup late last night (early this morning?) by Wicked Chops Poker as an homage to the efforts of female poker players in the biggest of poker's arenas.

Margets is stacked well heading into play with 3.65 million in chips, or enough to put her in 18th place overall. Her table draw for today doesn't look to be too tough as she has the second-largest stack at her table. However, the largest stack does belong to CardPlayer's Jeff Shulman, who has a Main Event final table under his belt from 2000.

The hopes of poker pros everywhere in one of their kind taking down the Main Event rest on the shoulders of Fabrice Soulier, Phil Ivey, Tom Schneider, Blair Rodman, Joe Sebok and Antonio Esfandiari.

The curent chip leader is Darvin Moon, followed by Billy Kopp. Ivey is in a very dangerous third place after steamrolling his table yesterday. Ivey with a lot of chips is a scary thing for those at his table and, honestly, the field as a whole.
