Just 12 hours remain in my time away from the arid confines of Las Vegas. By this time tomorrow, I will be back on the tournament floor and digging for the stories, back stories, and tall tales that come out of the World Series.

Also by that time, PokerStars' mega World Series satellite will be underway. No fewer than 150 Main Event packages will be given away tomorrow afternoon starting at 4:30 ET. The mega sat is running in place of the Sunday Million, so it's sure to be a monster. To register, click on Tourney/Special in the tournament lobby.

If you're one of those people already planning for a trip to Vegas, you're in for quite a time. Despite a lot of hand-wringing about the events' numbers falling off, the World Series is still breaking records. As for the Main Event, we'll just have to wait and see.

This weekend, Team PokerStars' has been working hard to continue its insane run at final table performances. Here's a look around the floor, courtesy of our friends at ImageMasters Photography.
