The biggest professional poker player in Britain is Chris Moorman, and he is certainly no stranger to success – he is already listed as the biggest all-time tournament winner on the Internet, and recently the twenty-eight-year-old player added to that impressive record by taking down his twentieth Triple Crown. If you have only been playing at the Slots Jungle Casino so far and are not really aware of poker terms then this may not make much sense to you, but when we reveal that it is an award which is given to poker players who win three different tournaments of a certain size across three different poker rooms within a week, you will certainly be suitably impressed.
Moorman completed the trilogy of wins recently, and took the time afterwards to head to his Twitter account in order to let everyone know how he felt. He commented, “Just finished my 18 hour grind today with a win in the Party Major to complete my 20th triple Crown #winning.” It seems now as though he is simply getting to the point where he likes to challenge himself and see how many of these Triple Crowns he can get, as he is clearly head and shoulders above most of the other online players in the UK which he comes up against. His first tournament victory this week was the PokerStars twenty-two dollar no limit hold ‘em event, in which he bested a field of 655 players in order to collect the first place prize, which was worth $6211. Then he headed over to Full Tilt for the $200 buy in to beat ninety-nine competitors to the $6400 prize. Finally, he went over to PartyPoker in order to take on a field of 1058 others in the $200,000 guaranteed, a win which netted him a further $27,400.
With this latest series of victories, the professional player has now taken his career online earnings to an amazing figure of more than $10 million, which added to the almost $3 million he has won playing in the live arena makes him $13 million better off. Those who are interested in just exactly how he manages to do it will soon get a unique glimpse into the way he approaches the game, as he has recently announced that he is working on a book which will tell all about how he handles multitable tournaments. This will be a fantastic guide for players who wish to emulate his success, as it will provide insightful analysis of 100 tournament hand histories to explain how he would have dealt with the situation and how to make sure that you come out of it with success. He explains: “Really this is the first time ever I have done any sort of coaching, per say. I’ve never done a training video before, or any private coaching. I recently have had a lot of people writing me and asking to do all of the above, and this just felt like the perfect opportunity.”
