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.
$40,000 40th Annual No-Limit Holdem (Event 2)
A special World Series of Poker event to celebrate 40 years of this magnificent series of tournaments. This event saw a lot of the big names in poker, and we
also saw a great final table with some big names including Vitaly Lunkin, former Main Event winner Greg Raymer,
Lex Veldhuis, Justin Bonomo, Dani Stern (of 2 Months, 2 Million fame), Noah Schwartz, Isaac Haxton and Ted Forrest.
A beautiful final table, with some High Level Poker - and a great ending for the Russian.
