World Series of Poker Main Event On TV at Last

Tonight, after much waiting, ESPN will begin airing its coverage of this year's World Series of Poker main event -- the championship no-limit Texas Hold'em event that awarded the winner the biggest prize in poker of all time. For the next month, every Tuesday night, you can watch the field of over 5600 players get whittled down to the final table.

If you want to amaze your friends with your predictions for who to watch, might I suggest looking at this list of chip leaders from Day 5. Since that day's coverage won't air until November, you'll seem like a poker brain surgeon. Sure you could just look at who got to the final table or even who won, but what fun is that?
