The broadcast of the 2003 World Series of Poker main event stands out as the most important moment in televised poker history. When accountant Chris Moneymaker bluffed and then defeated seasoned professional Sammy Farha to conclude the first multi-episode WSOP broadcast, the folks watching at home saw him realize a dream and realized their dreams could be lived out on the same felt. In the years since, there have been thousands of episodes of dozens of poker TV shows, but none have rivaled that Moneymaker victory in importance or in influencing the poker industry's future. It was a true evolutionary moment.
The next such moment is at hand.
At the dawn of the 2011 World Series of Poker main event, 6,865 players put up $10,000 apiece with the dream of emerging as world champion and taking home $8,711,956 of the $64,531,000 prize pool. In the eight days of play that followed, all but nine fell by the wayside. Now, those nine will reunite in the Penn & Teller Theatre at the Rio in Las Vegas, fighting over the $28,269,361 that remains up for grabs and the title of world champion of poker. Still, we've had November Nines before. There's a final table every year. The money is there every year. There's a champion crowned every year. But this year is different.
This year, for the first time, it's all coming to you in real time on 15-minute delay . Every tense pause, every cheer from the crowd, every decision, every ounce of agony, every hand. Welcome to the new World
