Partying Like it's 2003: Chris Moneymaker Deep in WSOP Main Event Again

Don't adjust your calendar, it really is 2021, not 2003, and Chris Moneymaker is making a deep run in the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event.

PokerNews caught up with the former world champ on the first break of Day 4 to see how his current Main Event run compares to 18 years ago, when he won the whole shebang.

Moneymaker left the table on break with around 1.3 million chips, which put him at 130 big blinds and among the top 20 chip leaders. The money bubble burst at about 1:30 a.
