it's funny how everyone on here has something to say. i would like to see some of you play...probably jokes.

NOPOKERSKILLZ 10-19-04 06:00 PM

I think the correct thing to sum all of this up is that Moneymaker sucks... compared to Ivey and Harrington and all the other greats... he probably wouldn't suck compared to all of you... Congrats on the millions made but he will never be as good as Ivey or Harrington

Mike 10-21-04 06:00 PM

Don't worry Chris will be around a long time

NEVS/WISEMAN/RNEVELS 10-23-04 06:00 PM

Hey All Just Left Vegas Friday Chris Was Playing 25.00 Dollar Buy In Touraments At The Imperial Palace With Only 600 Too 1st Place He Lost Like A 100 Pounds No Wedding Ring Wearing Flip Flops I Think He Is Down And Out Broke Why Else Would He Be Playing There He Looked Like Nick Nolte When He Got That Dui People Where Takin His Picture And Getting Autographs Anybody Know What Happen To Him Please Reply Thanks.

the wise one 10-25-04 06:00 PM

I can't believe you guys expected moneymaker to win again (or even do well). How many repeat champs have there ever been? Not that many. Yes, he is a flash in the pan, but i'd like to win 2.5 million, luck or not.

Sammy the Brick 10-30-04 06:00 PM

Now that I masqueraded as Jay T and insulted him for being an idiot, I'd like to say a few words about Moneymaker. He is a good amateur player, and he did do well in an 800 plus person tourney, with that said I think that luck had, and still has much to do with winners in such tourneys. Back when the WSOP was an 8 man tourney it was much more a skill game, today it's still skill, but SOOO much more luck is involved it's scary. Now I say Money has some skill and is a good player because he also came in second in the WPT tourney with Phil Gordon. That's all thanks.

Whitey 10-31-04 06:00 PM

I think he looked drunk at the 2004 WSOP...That was sad because you think the reigning champ would want to make a good showing....I dont think you'll ever see him at a final table again....He'll be back working as an accountant in five years.....sad but true

Sammy the Brick 11-02-04 06:00 PM

hey Whitney he was druink, he said he was, said he got drunk the night before and was up until four am it really was sad. I like the guy, but i think he's made too big a deal of, only because he's the champion of the poker explostion.

Art/Hydroblunt/mekrox 11-06-04 06:00 PM

Moneymaker barely got anywhere in this years WSOP. Im talking about all the events including the main one. So obviously he isnt some miracle player just an above average player who got lucky. It happens.

broth 11-09-04 06:00 PM

i havent heard of him since 2003.. where has he been?

cockle picker 11-14-04 06:00 PM

to beat 800 other players in the wsop,plus having to win tournaments on line to qualify,i think we can safely say this guy is the best around

slvsc2 11-15-04 06:00 PM

Reality check people -- Moneymaker did have a good tournament in 2003. He did have some great hands to play and did earn his title. HOWEVER, since then he has been little more than a hack. He's pissed away his WSOP money and is losing his appearance fees at various casinos. That's not rumor folks. I give the guy credit for what he accomplished in 2003 but he's done little since. I feel bad for the guy because he bought into his own press. He'll wind up back in the Ozarks crunching numbers.

nevs/wiseman/rnevels 11-16-04 06:00 PM

So He Is Down And Out Thats Why He Was At Imperial Palace Playing 25 Dollar Tourneys...hmmm I Feel Sorry For The Guy..

aces high 56 11-17-04 06:00 PM

MM is very lucky ..he is bad at poker and he will be making a $10000 donation every year for the rest of his life!!!

richardeum 11-22-04 06:00 PM

i dont like chis moneymaker at all!! hes just a lucky guy that won a tournament on tv

RGL GamePolice 11-29-04 06:00 PM

He look like Eric Gagné. I like him.

djnpa_30 11-30-04 06:00 PM

decent to good player and yes i admit and so does he that he got lucky to win the main event but hes a super nice guy and i wish him well

Unregistered 12-01-04 06:00 PM

OMG Moneymaker is a fat slob who got lucky and won the series. Big deal. - He hasnt done shit since.

Unregistered 12-05-04 06:00 PM

He was 2nd place in I believe it was shooting stars WPT event. Winner was Phil Gordon. So he has done something since. Made final table and if Phil did not get an ace on the last hand he would of won that event. Moneymaker had pocket Kings Phil had an ace and something else. MM went all in and Phil called and caught the ace. Maybe he's done even more but this is the one I know about. So please people know what you are talking about before stating he hasn't done s**t since.

Kim B./tinybubbles042 12-08-04 06:00 PM

Does anyone know what kind of sunglasses Sammy Farha wears to play in? I want to get some for my husband for Christmas. Thank you.

Rico/Rico Moneymaker/LaL08Kb12004 12-18-04 06:00 PM

Chris Moneymaker played great... he hardly made any mistakes. The hand with phil Ivey, if im not mistaking he had two pair aces and omehting else, why would he not call the all in of phil Ivey. Plus he beat a lot of people at the final table. DONT HATE ON THIS GUY

sammy the brick 12-18-04 06:00 PM

"low cards, low cards." when I watch my wsop dvd late at night I always rewind the bit when he says that. Its almost orgasmic.

wow rico youre an idiot 12-20-04 06:00 PM

He had trip Q's with an ace kicker and caught the ace on the river...

Enkhbat 12-20-04 06:00 PM

He won the blind man's bluff, so he is good don't hate him

pocket7s 12-20-04 06:00 PM

enkhbat is right MM is a damn tight cool player.I agree with sammy the bricks above post.

Enkhbat 12-20-04 06:00 PM
