'81 WSOP Main Event

Give these vids a look-see. It is the ’81 WSOP Main Event. There were bad beats back then also. LOL. You can tell by the clothes and hair that disco hadn’t quite died yet. Thank god that it did. It looks like a poker party at Dirk Digler’s house. There is also an old fat dude at the final table with a top hat on. There’s even a young Texas Dolly in the background. (He must have busted out earlier, because I’m pretty sure he wasn’t just there to watch the show. $10,000 is a lot of money now, so you could likely buy a nice car for that kind of loot. Stu Ungar is the defending Champ. Young Stu is only slightly less ugly that older Stu. I doubt Pepsi was knocking down his door to do any commercials With all the parts it is around 60 min long. So sit back, plug in the lava lamp, turn on some Bee Gee’s, and watch some U-tube with me.
