When amateur player Ken Light won a special tourney at one online poker room, he got more than money: he got the chance to put together a Dream Table and play them at poker After Dark.

Whether anybody likes it or not, the World Series of poker is the measuring stick for poker players. Maybe declaring somebody, 'the best' because of their WSOP track record is about as official as Stone Cold Steve Austin anointing himself Pope for the reason that he can probably take the Holy Pontiff in Steel Cage Match, but regardless of whether or not it is official, it is how poker fans determine who the best players in the world are.

A rumor is circulating that pro player Phil 'The Unabomber' Laak went through make up and disguise efforts to hide his identity in one tournament, and that is just the sort of thing ESPN will capture...
