Unless you have been living under a
rock for the last 5 years, I am sure
at some point you have tried your hand
at online gambling.
The
growth of this recent phenonmenon has
been a lucrative shock to many people
who were smart enough to take advantage
of this craze. In the early to late 90's online
gambling wasnt
even a blip on the radar screen. Who
would of thought it would be what it
is today. If there was one man to thank
for the rise of it all, I would have
to say thank the man named Chris Moneymaker.
Yeah thats his real name. If you don't
know who he is, Chris Moneymaker is the
man that won the World Series Of Poker
in 2003. Why thank him? Well Chris wasn't
much of a gambler, in fact his story
goes that he started playing poker online.
Then won himself a seat in the WSOP from
playing an online tournament.
When he
sat in his seat at the WOSP that was
the first time in his life that he played
a live game. A game with actual people!
All of his experience was just playing
online for a year. Well, he eventually
won it and it is a rags to riches story.
The online player beats all the poker
pros! After that, the underdog taking
it all, it started the onling gambling
boom. The online
gambling craze skyrocketed
in the years to come. There was just
a handfull of online
gambling sites in
the 90's, but today there are hundreds.
It
has become a billion dollar industry
that grows by the second. If you are
a gambler and arent online yet, then
what are you waiting for. Hours of fun
and enjoyment await you on your computer
screen. I have to admit myself I play
online as well. So get to it!
