Online poker’s all-time greatest tournament crusher Chris Moorman once again proved he has what it takes to win in the live sphere by taking down the Wynn Summer Classic event 3 last night, a $56k win taking him over the $5.5million live tournament cashes marker.
With most of the poker action in Vegas focused on the World Series of Poker at the Rio, those looking for a change of scenery headed elsewhere – the $200k guaranteed event as part of the Wynn Summer Classic series as good a place as any for the evening…
The 888poker ambassador has amassed over $14million in online tournament cashes under his monikers Moorman1 and 888moorman, the only player to have broken the magical $10million barrier, and is ostensibly in Vegas looking to improve on his 35 cashes and single bracelet – won last year in the $3,000 NLH 6-handed event.
With one cash already and plans to play the WSOP.com online event among many others, Moorman’s recent relocation to Vegas might help in his quest for more glory.
"If you asked me five years ago, Vegas would be the last place on earth I’d end up living," Moorman told PokerNews’ Chad Holloway this week. “It’s kind of random, but so far so good”.
The Wynn Summer Classic has a full schedule in place for the summer, over 30 events rounded off by the $1600 WSC Championship with a $1.5million guarantee.
