The first WSOP took place in Las Vegas at Binion's Horseshow. It was a series of cash games, such as five card stud, deuce to seven low ball draw, razz, seven card stud and Texas Hold'em. Having the Main Event as a freeze out Texas Hold'em game, did not start until 1971. In the first year, Johnny Moss, won the Main Event after being voted by the other players as the first World Champion of Poker and took home a silver cup.
Johnny Chan (born in 1957) is a legendary and highly respected Chinese American professional poker player. Chan is known for his excellent poker strategy and wins. In his career, till date, he has 10 World Series of Poker bracelets to his credit that also include 1987 and 1988 World Series of Poker Main Events won back to back.
