Chris Moneymaker is a very good player and he knows poker very well. To win two tournaments out of 3 is something very beautiful. He was an accountant and those who do well with mathematics can be a very good poker player, if he learns about this game. Very nice performance for record.
I already began to forget the player with this name ... it's very rare about him now in the news ..... although this is certainly a legendary player .... Chris Moneymaker name that reminds me of my youth .... nice to see him again and I hope that after this we will hear about him more than once

Congrats, Chris Moneymaker! Chris Moneymaker was just a 27-year-old accountant from Nashville when he won the 2003 World Series of Poker main event. The moment of his triumph totally changed the poker landscape forever.
