Chirp and a Chair Podcast Episode 2: The Second Poker Boom with Chris Moneymaker

Is this the second poker boom? In this episode, we’re joined with none other than Chris Moneymaker, the man who ignited the first boom by winning the 2023 WSOP Main Event. Fresh off his first major Triton Poker Series title, Chris shares how being the catalyst for poker across the world has impacted his life and how he's evolved to remain a multi-generational champion. He reflects on dealing with the weight of inspiring so many and even shares stories of celebrity fan moments, including Leonardo DiCaprio fanboying over him and turning down a game with Justin Timberlake to stay comfortable at home. Through it all, Chris remains the ‘regular joe’—the people’s champion poker players still look up and relate to.
