From 1970 when the champion was presented a silver cup, to the present when the champion was awarded more than $2 million, Championship Table celebrates three decades of poker greats who have competed to win poker's most coveted title. This book gives you the names, stories and photographs of all the players who made the final table, pictures of the hand they won with, how they played their cards, and how much they won. There are also fascinating interviews and conversations with the champions and runners-up and interesting highlights from each Series. This is a fascinating and invaluable resource book for WSOP and gaming buffs. In some cases the champion himself wrote “how it happened,” as did two-time champion Doyle Brunson when Stu Ungar caught a wheel in 1980 on the turn to deprive Texas Dolly of his third title. Includes tons of vintage photographs.
