Chris Moneymaker (yes, that?s his real name!), whose friends call him ?Money,? started with a $40 wager at an online poker site, and gambled his way into a spot at the 34th annual World Series of Poker in 2003. His keen poker skills and all the experience he gained from playing online allowed Chris to beat out dozens of the world?s most talented players...and to win 2.5 million dollars! Mr. Moneymaker said that being an unknown worked to his advantage at the tournament, since many of the big-name players underestimated him. Chris, who donated $25,000 of his winnings to cancer research charities, still has plenty left over to live the good life! Another online casino legend is Greg ?Fossilman? Raymer, a former patent attorney who realized that he could make a better living playing poker. Just like Chris Moneymaker, Greg qualified for the 2004 World Series of Poker by playing online. At the World Series, he won the handsome sum of $5 million! Greg is famous for being an all-around nice guy who is extremely friendly and talkative, and well-loved by his wife Cheryl and daughter Sophie. His unusual nickname comes from his hobby of collecting fossils; he even uses a small fossil as a card protector while he plays. These champs? stories show you that you don?t have to go to a land casino in order to make a name for yourself in the gaming world. If your goal is to gain enough experience to play with the big guys, a great way to start is online, just like Chris and Greg! |
