WSOP History: Looking Back at the November (and October) Nines
Level 7
: 150/300, 30 ante
No stage in poker stood as a bigger goal for a tournament player than the final table of the WSOP Main Event. For years, that meant going to sleep knowing you had the chance of a lifetime, to go down in poker history in the next few days as the cameras captured your every bet, raise and fold.
All of that changed in 2008.
The year after Jerry Yang's Main Event victory was broadcast to all on ESPN's standard tape delay, organizers made a decision to try to increase the excitement and anticipation around the final table: after the final nine was reached, play would be paused. At that point, everyone left would go home with 9th-place money and the players would reconvene a few months later to play out the final table on a short tape delay.
That lasted until 2016, and this is the history of the November (and October) Nines.

Howard's Last Chance
Level 8
: 175/350, 35 ante
In order to participate in the WSOP.com online bracelet events, players must be in either Nevada or New Jersey. That means players in other locales would need to travel in order to partake. One such player is Iowa’s Taylor “gambol_time” Howard, who has $139,470 in live tournament earnings.
That includes a career-best $89,939 for winning the 2018 Mid-States Poker Tour (MSPT) Meskwaki $1,100 Main Event.
Howard is in action today and playing his last online tournament of the series.
Last day in vegas. Last tourney. It’s the biggest buy in of the summer with a ton of crushers. @WSOP #LFG https://t.co/ZjaatW5tou
