Event #8's first prize was $585,774 (Wikipedia shows $585,744). Event #16's first prize was $239,503 (WSOP.com's page shows $238,881, from a ladder one entry short). Event #40's first prize was $205,271 for its 620 entries (an earlier sheet for 619 entries, used by PokerNews and Wikipedia, showed $204,935). Prizes are rounded to the dollar, so one may differ by $1 from another source's figure. WSOP.com's entry count doesn't fit its own prize pool in #14, #23; Wikipedia's does, and is used.
