Let me be very clear: I did not like The Moneymaker Effect, I absolutely loved it. I tore through this highly readable book in two sittings, devouring the “stories behind the story” of Chris Moneymaker’s 2003 World Series of Poker victory…
…Beyond being a page-turner, the information in this book is an extremely important piece of poker history, and had Raskin not chronicled these behind-the-scenes missives and anecdotes, I have a feeling most of it would have been lost to time, like so many other poker tales that live on somewhere between legend and reality.
