Cosmopolitan Quiz!
In a year which saw players compete from all across the globe, Jerry Yang is the only American left at the 2007 WSOP Main Event final table. Tuan Lam hails from Canada and Raymond Rahme is from South Africa. So its 2-1 for a ‘foreign’ winner in 2007.
In the whole history of the WSOP only four non-Americans have won the Main Event.
