@@AntonioAlvarez715Doyle Brunson passed away about a year ago, and thusly lived almost 20 years to the day from this recording of all the guys playing. This was his 3rd run at a championship and he ended up being a 10 time bracelet champion and was the ultimate 10-2 player. They named the hand of 10/2 after him and he still has the highest play rate of that hand in recorded professional poker history. An absolute legend of a man. If you’re interested you can look up Texas Dolly Celebration of Life and watch that!

Man… the theme song just takes ya straight back to where it all began for us in the 35-45 age range. They say Moneymaker was responsible for the boom, but I think it was simply because of the ESPN coverage. I’m sure the moneymaker story made it easy for us to want to chase the dream of winning a $40 satellite, but ESPN is the main reason. How the game has changed in a short 20 years.

Man, even with a lot of the same faces involved, the older coverage just has a special flavor to it that's just not quite there anymore. Crazy to see Hellmuth and think at this point he hadn't even won almost half his bracelets yet when this first aired.
@Mr_Oggie11 ай бұрын
I enjoy watching these old episodes of the WSOP, but for the 'olden days it leaves me partly missing them but at the same time glad they are gone. These, and other, poker shows had more character and personality back then, and that was because they went in to the characters and personalities of players at the table. However, that was also their biggest flaw and can be seen in this episode: Over 500 players were eliminated, more than 60% of the field, but they only show around 8-12 hands per episode and barely give any kind of recap (and I think they actually show less hands per episode in later years).
@bhakti23511 ай бұрын
wow the game has really changed in 20 years. no one is talking about back door draws or fold equity or so many of the other concepts that are commonplace today. and the play is so passive! limping in, check check on hands that today people would be betting. very interesting.
