Full Tilt Poker Cash Game Has Seven-Figure Pot -

Full Tilt Poker has often played second fiddle in the circuit television online cash game. High Stakes Poker was the first show to really explore the world of online poker and Full Tilt Poker Million Dollar Cash Game really had to take a seat behind them anything else they have tried.

Now, that's another story, however, that something happened in the game Full Tilt Poker cash that could directly challenge the very basis on which the success of High Stakes Poker has been built.

What High Stakes Poker such a popular show is that from time to time really huge pots had been raised. The World Series of Poker in May were $ 10,000 buy-ins, but that's nothing compared to pots worth six figures who regularly took place on High Stakes Poker. In the fifth season of the most recent exhibition, a pot has exceeded $ 900,000 in value between Tom Dwan and Barry Greenstein.

However, the Million Dollar Cash Game had pot during the fourth season, which ended up being 1.1 million dollars in size. The pot has not been televised yet, but it will be aired on Sky Sports during the course of the fourth season of the show cash game in January 2010.

The interesting aspect of both games is that many of the same actors play really in both emissions. In addition to Tom Dwan, Phil Ivey, Chris Ferguson, Gus Hansen, Mike Matusow and Patrik Antonius are among the poker professionals to others who have played both the high stakes cash games.

Interestingly enough, Tom Dwan is the player who has been involved in pots larger of the two shows. He had a showdown with Phil Ivey that resulted in the pot of $ 1.1 million on the Full Tilt Poker Million Dollar Cash Game and had a tussle with Barry Greenstein has resulted in the pot of 0.9 million $ on High Stakes Poker.

Dwan currently flying high in the world of poker, both online and offline. It has recently been dismissed as a participant in the Poker Hall of Fame, however, because the committee thought it had not yet undergone the test of time.

World Series of Poker Main Event November Nine -

The 2009 World Series of Poker held in Las Vegas in the months of June and July. The main event has been played down to the final table during this period and the nine players who made the final table of the Main Event will not return to finish the race until November. The implementation for the Main Event is exactly the same as last year so if you've watched the main event last year, then you already know how they run the event.

There is no doubt that there are certainly some excellent players in the final table of the main event this year and it should be interesting to see who will win. Obviously, the most outstanding player of poker has made the final table is Phil Ivey. Ivey will be starting the final table in 7th place with nearly 10 million in chips so it certainly has some work to do if he expects to meet another bracelet to his resume.

The current chip leader going into the 2009 WSOP Main Event Final Table is Darvin Moon is sitting with about 60 million in chips. It has a sizeable lead over the rest of the competitors at the moment and it should be very interesting to see what he does with his lead. I know that many players would sit tight and wait for some players to be eliminated next November, but I am not convinced Darvin is willing to do. I think he might try to apply pressure on the advantages of short chips to see how it goes first.

The other remaining players in the Main Event are a mixture of pro players and amateur players who made the main event through a satellite event. The main event is always one of the most interesting tournaments of the year to watch because with such a great playground anything can happen. As we have seen in the last two pro players and unknown amateur players have won the WSOP Main Event in the past and this year it could go either way again.

Players who have made the final table in World Series of Poker 2009 WSOP Main Event are as follows.

* Darvin Moon - 58,930,000 Chips - United States
* Eric Buchman - 34,800,000 Chips - United States
* Steven Begleiter - 29,885,000 Chips - United States
* Jeff Shulman - 19,580,000 Chips - United States
* Joe Cada - 13,215,000 Chips - United States
* Kevin Schaffel - 12,390,000 Chips - United States
* Phil Ivey - 9,765,000 Chips - United States
* Antoine Saout - 9500000 Chips - France
* James Akenhead - 6800000 Chips - England

As you can see from the chart above there is clearly a lot more players from the United States than anywhere else this year. In previous years, there has been much more of an international presence on the final table, but the way it worked this year's 7 best players are all American. James and Anthony will have a chance to stop the Americans out of the bracelet, but they are both short chips and will play poker if they want a great chance of winning the 2009 WSOP Main Event bracelet and the first place to approximately $ 8.5 million prize.
