Greg Raymer Reflects on Historic WSOP Main Event Win 20 Years Later

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

In 2003, the game of poker changed forever after Chris Moneymaker topped a field of 839 players to win the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event for $2.5 million. By doing so, the Moneymaker effect ignited the “Poker Boom,” which saw the tournament field triple the following year.

The 2004 Main Event was the last to be held at the birthplace of the WSOP – Binion’s Horseshoe in downtown Las Vegas. The venue was packed to the rafters with 2,576 players entering that year’s tournament, and with the ESPN cameras capturing all the action several poker players made a name for themselves that year including young guns David Williams and Josh Arieh, while 1995 WSOP Main Event champ Dan Harrington made history by following up his third-place finish in the 2003 WSOP Main Event by placing fourth in 2004 for $1.5 million.

However, when the dust settled it was a patent attorney from Connecticut by the name of Greg Raymer winning the whole thing for a smooth $5 million and a gold bracelet. While attempting to defend his title in 2005, which doubled from the year prior by attracting 5,619 players, Raymer proved his win was no fluke by making another deep run, ultimately falling in 25th place for $304,680.

It’s been 20 years since Raymer’s victory, but he hasn’t slowed down as he’s continued to play poker all across the globe. In recognition of Raymer’s anniversary, PokerNews caught up with the champ, who will be at the 2024 WSOP!

Crawford Gets Value From Drobes

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Kelvin Crawford called in the small blind and in the big blind, Scott Drobes raised to 1,500 which Crawford called.

Crawford checked the flop of 254 over to Drobes who bet 1,500 once more and Crawford called.

On the 10 turn, both players checked to the 2 river where Crawford bet 5,000. Drobes went into the tank, talking through his thought process, before eventually tossing the chips into call.

He revealed 54 for fives and fours which Drobes said was good as he tossed his hand into the muck.
