Complementing this facility is a live update forum, and video footage of the tournament will also be shown on Poker425 Sky channel from 11pm on July 6th, 13th and 20th.

Dan Taylor of UK betting giant William Hill explains: "The World Series of Poker is the biggest event in the poker calendar with players competing for a share of a $6 million prize chest.

"We know from the response we have had to Poker425's coverage of the sport that poker fans wanted to be kept up-to-date with the high pressure action, so Poker425 is offering fans the chance to follow the tournament from start to finish, keeping a close eye on the progress of the top players and the leading British and European contestants".
