During the 2008 World Series of Poker Main Event final table the November Nine were in fine form, with incredible hands falling left and right. In this particular hand one NY chess player showed that he had mastered the nuances of poker as well as he had the game of chess by making an insanely great fold.

When the 2008 World Series of Poker Main Event final table got underway it seemed like many of the players didn’t play many hands. These were the mid to short stack crew, those holding on tight and trying to climb the money ladder without much hope for an actual victory, and Craig Marquis and Scott Montgomery were among them.

While many of the players at the 2008 World Series of Poker Main Event final table could be considered pros, only one was considered an established pro, one who had been around long enough and played in enough venues to be considered such. Chino Rheem was his name, and many pros had gathered in the stands of the Penn and Teller theater to watch the November Nine and cheer for Rheem.

Luck is certainly needed in a poker game. As much talk about the game being all skill, lucky does come into play, and certainly during a major No Limit Hold’em tournament. One can’t get more major than the 2008 World Series of Poker Main Event final table, and every one of the November Nine was hoping to get lucky; and one player brought something along to help him out.

Much ado was made about David “Chino” Rheem, a Korean American poker pro who was said to be carrying the weight of all of poker pro-dom on his shoulders, by his own admission. While there were other pros at the table during the 2008 World Series of Poker Main Event final table and among the November Nine, Rheem was the only one considered an “established” pro. All the big name pros like Daniel Negreanu and Phil Hellmuth knew and played with Chino, and in fact many were in the audience watching the action.

There was a lot of fun at the 2008 World Series of Poker main event final table as the November Nine finally got to play after months of waiting. While some looked on like Ylon Schwarts, Dennis Phillips and Ivan Demidov, the two Korean American players, Chino Rheem and Kelly Kim, fought it out in this hand, but with love.

With the action hot and heavy at the 2008 World Series of Poker main event final table it was no wonder some players were sweating the action; but in poker that means waiting to see if your hand holds up or gets crushed. In this hand observer and poker pro Chino Rheem put it right when he said, “There’s always a sweat.”

There was plenty of action at the final table of the 2008 World Series of Poker main event, even without Hevad Khan to whoop it up and play invisible basketball. The first chip leader surrendered his lead in the first hand, and in the second hand the new chip leader nearly took the rest of his chips. In this hand that player, in turn, lost his lead, and the drama continued.

The drama was already underway. Now that the 2008 World Series of Poker main event final table was actually happening, now that the November Nine were done with the break, the chip leader had lost his lead in the first hand, and could very well lose his tourney life in the second! It was Dennis Phillips, taking on Russian pro Ivan Demidov, to see what would happen next.

It was finally time. After months of waiting, the 2008 World Series of Poker main event final table was finally taking place, with the November Nine seated and ready to see who would walk with more than $9 million as the winner. In this hand it was chip leader Dennis Phillips and midstack Ylon Schwarts starting things off.
