    WSOP 2008 was on ESPN classic (SKY channel 442) last night at 11:00. Its on again tonight at 12:00. I didnt get to see it last night so I'm not sure which event they are showing.

    Hope this answers your question:

    The $10,000 buy-in main event is scheduled to premiere on Sept. 2 from 8p.m.-10 p.m. ET and will continue airing on Tuesday nights from Sept. 9 to Oct. 28, but at 9-11 p.m. ET. ESPN will show the action all the way down to the final table of nine. On Nov. 4 at 8 p.m.-10 p.m., a final-table preview show will air.

    This is the first year that no one will know the results of the main event months before the airing of the episode. In May, ESPN and Harrah’s Entertainment announced that the main event will not conclude on July 16 as originally scheduled, but instead, after taking nearly a four-month break, the final table will reconvene Nov. 9. The remaining nine players will play down to heads up. On Nov. 10, the final two players will play for the more than $9.1 million first-place prize and a permanent place in poker history as a WSOP champion. Television audiences will be reintroduced to the final nine on Nov. 11, when the final table episode airs from 9 p.m.-11 p.m. ET.

    Pokertube for all of poker, excellent website with no advert breaks as mentioned. They even have the 70's - 80's wsop main events. I am just after watching the 50K horse main event 2008, scotty nguyen acted lke a complete muppet at the final table, especially when it got 3 handed, drunk & abusing people, No table etiquette, he calls himself "the prince of poker" more like " the pi$$head of poker " (excuse the french), eric lindgren & michael de michelle showed class against scotty.

    Watched it last night on TV. It was on ESPN (Sky 442) from 10:30 to 12:30 and showed the $1000 NLHE with re-buys. It was won by Michael Banducci, with Jeff Winters 2nd (winner EPT monte Carlo) and Peter Gould 3rd. Anyone else see it? What did you think?

    Its on again Saturday afaik.
