Chris Moneymaker went from an anonymous Tennessee accountant to the most recognizable name in poker almost overnight.
It’s taken 20 years, but he’s finally inching back toward anonymous status at the poker table.
For the better part of two decades, opponents wanted to take a shot at him. They wanted to be the person who eliminated Moneymaker from the World Series of Poker Main Event. Or they wanted to at least beat him in a big pot or run one bluff on him and come home with a story to tell.
Finally, enough time has passed for that to mostly wear off, thanks to sufficient turnover among the poker-playing crowd.
