The 2012 WSOP is just a few days away. Last year, the WSOP started off with a bang. On the first day of pro play, Phil Ivey issued a statement saying that due...

The WSOP held a press conference at the Masquerade Square inside the Rio for Darvin Moon and Joe Cada.
After Nolan Dalla (who would make an excellent ring announcer) did the introductions, “they” opened it up to the press for Q&A.
Moon actually sort of addressed that he has a criminal past (not in the video), saying that “we” could look it up, then saying that he was “just kidding.”
But more importantly than that, it looks like Joe Cada might’ve already won…in that he has a smoking hot girlfriend.
In what ESPN has publicly stated as an “absolute fucking worst-case scenario” final table*, the 2009 WSOP Champions Invitational airs tonight.
The final trio included three of the biggest charisma guys in the game: Tom McEvoy, Robert Varkyoni, and Dan Harrington.
All right all right. By all accounts McEvoy and Varkyoni are good guys, but that doesn’t mean they make for good TV. But we’ll remain hopeful. Can’t be worse than Face the Ace at least, right?
Above is a preview from tonight’s second episode. Reread our write-up on the event here.
* Ok, not publicly stated but come on, you know someone said it.
At the time, we described it as a “ratings killer.” Not much has changed since, although there are a few storylines that could be interesting. Our guess is the main focus will be put on the three young gunsTM–Isaac Haxton, Justin Bonomo, and Dani “Ansky” Stern (two Ansky references in one day?)–while weaving in the Greg Raymer finishing third as a big story. And no, we’re not rocket scientists for figuring that out.
Preview clip above and a second parter here. Using the super-cute-with-new-haircutJennifer Harman saying “all in” was a slick move by the editing team.
