Chris Moneymaker (remember him!?) in hunt for $2.5m at PCA

Simon Burley · Jan 12, 2011

Amazing how players can disappear for the best part of 10 years and then surface out of nowhere!

Can't see him winning this though...

He's been a stars pro for quite a while so it doesn't feel like he's disappeared and I've read he's really been working on his game and improving dramatically so good luck to him

Exactly, Moneymaker was one of the big names with the same mental coach that was helping Hellmuth, David Williams, and a number of others.

Lots of interviews in the last year to 18 months with him discussing how he's been working on his game and a few decent finishes.

Still find it funny he can't stay at the table when there is a flip going on. Walks out of the room and asks someone to let him know what happens.

I guess live is rigged too!

How else could Ivey have FH, have it be the best hand, go all in and still lose?

Marginal · Jan 12, 2011

Who is Martin Mathis?

onemorechance · Jan 12, 2011

TheLipoFund on 2p2. He's good

Marginal · Jan 12, 2011

You could not find a better hero? I should not talk because my hero is probably dead in a ditch right now (I'm looking at you Ed Hollis)

onemorechance · Jan 12, 2011

He's one of many

Marginal · Jan 12, 2011

So you are a tourney guy?

onemorechance · Jan 12, 2011

I'm beginning to fall that way
