WELCOME
We adore the World Series of Poker every single year, and after visiting Las Vegas to attend the event in 2009, we decided to create a fan site celebrating the game, and the series of tournaments. Browse around, and we'll give you all the info we have on the hottest series of poker tournaments around in 2009.
