It's finally here. Almost, anyway. After three-and-a-half months of waiting, the 2016 World Series of Poker Main Event Final Table �� a.k.a. the "November Nine" finally gets underway tomorrow.

This week on PokerNews we looked back at all eight of the previous "November Nines" in "A Retrospective: WSOP Main Event Final Tables of the 'November Nine' Era.". From each of those final tables a "key hand" was highlighted, and so for today's installment of "The Weekly PokerNews Strategy Quiz" we've got a multi-choice question concerning each of those hands.

Get six of the eight correct to pass, and if you miss any you'll see the correct choice explained. Also, see how you did against others taking the quiz by checking the "Top results," and if you're logged onto PokerNews your username will appear on the leaderboard.
