Was anyone anal enough to take time-stamped notes on the FT PPV as to when certain guests appeared, when certain big hands were played, etc? Does any site at least have the hands time stamped?

Doesn't Poker News time stamp their hand reports?

All of the hand entries are time-stamped at PokerNews.com. Unfortunately, the first few days after an event, the stamps show something like "18 hours ago," or "1 day and 15 hours ago," which isn't very useful for comparing things that happened within 10-15 minutes of each other.

Within a week (maybe 3-4 days?), the time stamps at PokerNews.com automatically switch over to actual dates and times (in this format: Sat July 07 2007 03:52 PST). All times are local to Las Vegas in the Pacific Time Zone.

FYI, I was the final table reporter for PokerNews.com (and WorldSeriesOfPoker.com) covering the play-by-play action on each hand. (Pauly McGuire was providing color commentary and analysis.) Most hands were in the system (and time-stamped) within about 20 seconds or so of the hand's completion. There was another delay of 1-2 minutes before it went "live" over the internet, because people acting after me were enhancing the coverage things like photos and the Final Table Live feature, where you could watch hands play out as if you were watching an online tournament.

If you wait another day or two (or three?), there will be time stamps for each and every hand of the 2007 WSOP Main Event final table.
