The entire world focused Chris Moneymaker as he turned a 40 dollars cyber entry expense into an breathtaking 2,500,000.00 dollars by winning the World Series of Poker and as you may have guessed, knocked out some pretty hefty players along the way.
An accountant who graduated from the University of Tennessee, Chris Moneymaker wished to try poker but never fathomed he was likely to get a golden opportunity like this. After winning his way to the World Series of Poker from the PokerStars site, Chris couldn’t have dreamed what sort of instant notoriety he would accumulate following winning the games.
Perhaps he was still in such bewilderment from the win at Poker Stars he did not recognize the chance that he would be a viable competitor at the World Series Of Poker. Not only was Chris a probable opponent, he was in addition a bold challenger and proving as much to the other players at the ending table.
If gamblers were amazed when he made it to the closing table, they would’ve been amazed when Chris Moneymaker became the 2003 World Series of Poker Champion.
He accrued the immediate regard of those who gambled with him in the tourney and repeatedly made everyone feel it was worth his time to stop and enjoy a tiny bit of small talk. He is an all-around nice person who is playing it intelligently at this time with his wins and has just launched "Money Maker Gaming" which looks set to be a huge hit. The on-line site gives an online variety of gifts and clothing for gaming followers.
While many poker seniors argue it was definitely his big break that put him into immediate "popularity," talent is certainly keeping him there. In 2004, Chris came in second at the Bay 101 Shooting Stars World Poker Tour Event which exhibits that his poker skills are still perfectly competent.
