Scope and Contents

The Poker Hall of Fame was established in 1979 by the Binions to honor great poker players past and present.

Around 1986, Binion began hosting a championship game called the Poker Hall of Fame Classic in which the best players from diverse categories came together to play in celebration of the game.
