From Las Vegas Sun Chris Moneymaker peered out into a sea of poker players and briefly reflected on the past decade. The World Series of Poker undraped a tribute bust to Moneymaker on Monday, 10 years after the former accountant from Memphis defeated 838 players to win $2.5 million in the world championship Main Event. “Back then, I knew three poker players,” Moneymaker said at the ceremony. “Over the last 10 years, I’ve met thousands and thousands of wonderful people in this game.
