And just recently on the WSOP 2009 the poker commentator played with another poker player who was supposedly a master a game of chess - they actually showed this for 5 minutes on tv!
The commentator was funny saying things like : "I just moved my horsey" etc . Even though it looked like a real game - they even used clocks! I am not sure because I didnt get to see the board too clearly.
However this must have been the first time that Poker actually had to give up 5 minutes to chess!
