Biography

Chris Moorman is a British professional poker player residing in Brighton. Moorman was initially famous for his results at the online poker tables playing under the nickname Moorman1 before he proved himself in live tournaments as well with a memorable performance at the 2011 World Series of Poker when he made three final tables, including a second-place finish at the WSOP Europe 10,000 Main Event in Cannes, France.

Intro

Moorman was born in 1985. He started playing poker online and built his bankroll from scratch. He took off by placing second in an online freeroll for $70 and things went on from there.

Just after the World Series in Vegas, Moorman traveled to Cannes, France for the WSOP Europe. Moorman scored his second runner-up finish in the Main Event taking home 800,000. A year later, in 2012 Moorman came back to Vegas for three more cashes including the 358th place finish in the Main Event for more than $30,000.

Moorman finally reached the winners circle in 2017 for the first time in a WSOP gold bracelet event after he shipped the $3,000 No-Limit Holdem Six-Handed event for nearly $500,000.
