Wild World of Sport by Wild World of Sport
Episode notes
Chris Moneymaker wasn’t a pro, wasn’t sponsored, and had never played an in-person tournament before. But in 2003, this unknown accountant from Tennessee bluffed his way past the best players in the world and changed poker forever - all because of an $86 online poker tournament.
On what could be our wildest story yet, we go through every step of Chris Moneymakers improbable journey at The World Series of Poker. From sleeping in and missing his start time, to 'the bluff of the century', we explain how one ordinary man created one of the most extraordinary stories in our search for the wildest sports story ever to be told.
