World Series of Poker

The World Series of Poker (WSOP) is a series of poker tournaments held annually in Las Vegas and, since 2005, sponsored by Caesars Entertainment (known as Harrah's Entertainment until 2010). It dates its origins to 1970, when Benny Binion invited seven of the best-known poker players to the Horseshoe Casino for a single tournament, with a set start and stop time, and a winner determined by secret ballot.

The winner of each event receives a World Series of Poker bracelet and a monetary prize based on the number of entrants and buy-in amounts. Over the years, the tournament has grown in both the number of events and in the number of participants. Each year, the WSOP culminates with the $10,000 no-limit hold'em "Main Event," which, since 2004, has attracted entrants numbering in the thousands. The victor receives a multi-million dollar cash prize and a bracelet, which has become the most coveted award a poker player can win. The winner of the World Series of Poker Main Event is considered to be the World Champion of Poker.

    World Series

    by: Hella

    The sun and the moon have burned each other out to soon.
    So sell me some doom,
    because I’m the only eyes wide open in the room.
    Undress the truth so I can have the feeling that it has
    been used.
    Alone you sit.
    Your heart bleeds quiet.
    You seem afraid.
    Loose lips sink ships!
    You have no grip.
    Don't you know, you're gonna die die die all alone.
    The look on your face has been making me lose sleep for
    days.
    Asleep in the haze in the middle of where everything is
    gray.
    The games that we play are gonna be the death of us
    someway... somehow.
    And I've been told about how the dawning of the hours is
    finally here.
    I could sing out loud if only the mighty and proud would
    all just disappear.
    Did someone open an undertow?
    Or is this drowning feeling typical?
    It isn't really who you know.
    Its how blatantly artistic your completely hypocritical.
    Don't you know you're gonna die die die all alone.
    Let this fire cover your vision for disintegration is a
    gift
