Moneymaker's winning the main event did more for the growth and success of poker than any single action by any other individual. At the time he was not considered a professional player, so would that have made him a non-player? I can look back at 3 specific events that contributed to my interest in poker and progress as a player:
1. Moneymaker winning the main event introduced me to a world that I did not know existed: tournament poker. Hell, I didn't even know poker was offered in casinos, I just played(badly) with my friends. This made me start watching tournaments on TV.
2. One specific WPT episode where players were asked what books they had read that influenced their play. One book was mentioned over and over: Super System. I read it and started to really think about the game. This led me to play online for free and eventually play(still badly) for money.
3. Signing up for online training offered by a certain author of this article turned me into a winning tournament player. Thanks D.N.!

The year Moneymaker won was the first time they used the hole card cam at the tables which was the reason people watched poker on TV than ever before. That was the reason for the growth of poker, not Moneymaker.
ReplyJohn Hennigan and Mori Eskandani have been inducted into the prestigious Poker Hall of Fame.
The World Series of Poker, owner of the Hall of Fame, announced Thursday that the two would become the 55th and 56th members of the exclusive club. The 10 finalists were announced earlier this month after an online nomination process.
The two men beat out David Oppenheim, Chris Bjorin, David Chiu, Bruno Fitoussi, Mike Matusow, Chris Moneymaker, Matt Savage and Huck Seed for induction this year.
The two inductees were selected by the 28 living members and an 18-person media panel.
Hennigan and Eskandani were inducted officially on Thursday as part of the live main event final table coverage on ESPN.
“I’m very excited by this news and grateful that it came at a point in my career when I was mature enough to be honored by it, because I am,” Hennigan said in a statement. “Thanks to everyone who voted for me!”

Hennigan is coming off a remarkable summer at the annual poker festival. In addition to winning bracelet no. 5, he’s already cashed 10 times at the series, including a second and three seventh-place finishes. “Johnny World” is also considered one of the best high-stakes cash game players on the planet. Eskandani does play poker, but he is better known for his production of the leading poker programming on television the past two decades. He’s been behind WSOP broadcasts, the NBC Heads-Up Championship, Poker After Dark and High Stakes Poker.
“Eskandani has helped bring the game of poker to the masses and ensure the game is always front and center with the public from a television medium standpoint,” the WSOP said in a statement.
Hennigan is 48; Eskandani is 62.
