Las Vegas Moneymakers Manager Chris Moneymaker Ready to Inspire Another Poker Boom

Earlier this year, the Global Poker League (GPL) not only announced their 12 teams, but revealed the dozen poker players who'll serve as managers for each team. One of those managers is 2003 World Series of Poker Main EVent winner Chris Moneymaker, who signed a two-year contract to manage, and possibly play on, the Las Vegas Moneymakers.

On Feb. 25, Moneymaker and other league managers, including Marc-Andre Ladouceur of the Montreal Nationals and Faraz Jaka of the San Francisco Rush, will gather at the SLS Hotel Beverly Hills to select the players of their teams in a draft that will be live streamed on Twitch.
