Online tournament players brag about PocketFives Triple Crowns. Last week UK phenom Chris Moorman bagged his 12th, extending the world record he currently holds. The PocketFives Triple Crown is awarded when an online player wins three events with a prize pool of $10,000 or more, across three separate sites, in the space of a week. In seven days, Moorman won a $163 tournament on Full Tilt for $7,654, two tournaments on PokerStars (a $109 event for $5,760 and a $215 rebuy for $20,654) and a $30 rebuy on iPoker for $4,141. That achievement in itself is amazing, but when you consider he has done this 11 times previously, you have to tip your hat to Moorman.

indeed but you have to consider, how much these players are able to actually spend on poker in a week but its still definitely very nice result

Never heard of such prize before. But the sure thing is that this guy, which i also hear for the first time is getting great results. And in so many sites. Many players would like to get not his results but the 1/10 from what he is getting
ANd there comes HAT-TRICK. Good job from him make it tree times in row. How many peapoles done it before him? Or what are odds to make it done? Still good to see, there are good online players, but i am interested in, if he can win 3 times in row on live tournaments, i think, this is Chalange.

wtf? how is this possible: many players (even those considered pro's) do not win a mtt tournament in their whole life and here this guy is winning 3 mtt's a week for 12th time in his career? this sounds just too good to be true imo. if these were hu sng's or 10 player sng's the no one would be surprised, but regularly winning 3 mtt's a week on different poker site sounds fishy
but its still definitely very nice result
