In this week’s Calling The Clock the World Series of Poker sees Chris ‘Jesus’ Ferguson return to action after a five-year absence, Aaron Paul stars in the opening match of the Global Poker League Summer Series, and Chris Moorman signs for 888Poker.

It’s June, and that means one thing: The World Series of Poker (WSOP), and here are the highlights of the first week.

The organisers of the world’s greatest festival of poker have so far handed out six bracelets and one million dollar prize. That bad boy is now sitting in the bank account of Benjamin Keeline, 30, who managed to turn a single $500 chip, with blinds at $1,500/$3,000 ante $500, into a $1m first prize after outlasting 21,613 in the Colossus II.

WSOP officials pulled out all the stops in the hope that this would be a record breaker, and it was. Unfortunately, the record for highest number of players cashing in a single event (3,245) was not what they expected. It was supposed to be the largest live tournament ever, and instead, it never managed to overhaul the enormity of Colossus I.
