A Tutorial.,
I know some guys have asked me before why I waste my time watching poker on television. I’ve explained to them that observing the action, and getting to see the cards that are played and raised, actually makes me a better player. It’s as if you’re given several hours of practice hands to learn from. For your average Joe, seeing the way in which the game changes when the table is small is very helpful. Ordinarily, I would be too conservative to play the types of cards necessary to win at a 4, 5 or 6 person table. You have to take chances and gamble which is exactly what Farha and Moneymaker do throughout these 7 episodes. I also like the fact that, unlike when you see them on television, there are not any commercials here to distract and annoy. You can speed right through the discs. I got my copy used and definitely will be watching WSOP 2003 a few more times.

a great way to learn the game,
watching these disc i was struck by how much drama and comedy that there is in poker. this is also a very cheap way to learn about the game and what it takes to play with the big boys. i have watched this once and will watch it again.

Good Value,
This DVD is well worth the price and the 2003 tournament was the last before the WSOP got out of control. Good to watch Chan, Ivey, Hellmuth, Farha, Harrington, Lederer, Nguyen etc. Would have been nice to see some more extra features but you can’t complain about the ESPN coverage.
Good to see Moneymaker win it. Not an out and out champion like Ivey etc, but a good solid poker player nonetheless. Seems like a good bloke too. Rather have a beer with him than Jamie Gold!!
