Has anyone been paying attention to this? The final table had several players who just played poker online ?!?!Fossilman wins WSOPSeems to be the hottest thing going now. ESPN had cameras everywhere and will be broadcasting the edited coverage next month:ESPN Coverage

This should be in off topic.phil hellmuth

yes of course... an internet player won it last year toothe WSOP is when loads of new players join the internet and us old timers take their money...

Wasn't the winner last year named Chris Moneymaker?

yes .. nice name!basically, playing online up to 4 tables at once, 5 hours a day for a week is the equivalent of a 'pro' going to the casino once a week for 6 months... so the internet players are actually becoming a real forcein addition, there are so many people at the WSOP now who won their entry online and aren't actually that good - this confuses the pros and means they can get taken out by being unlucky... also there are some people out there who know they aren't going to win and just want a good story like ' I busted out Phil Hellmuth '.actually I busted out Phil Hellmuth once... but thats a different story

actually I busted out Phil Hellmuth once... but thats a different storyElaborate please. I'm a fan of No Holdem and a fan of Phil's (his book is excellent!)

yes, would love to hear the storyi'm just catching up on poker history, read mcmanus's book and now onto tj cloutier's

Busted out Phil? No way You cant even take me in heads up! I'm demolishing you something like 3-2.
