Deck Used To Give Chris Moneymaker The World Series Of Poker Main Event Title On eBaySo Far, No One Willing To Pay Four Figures For A Deck |
|
The deck that was used to deal Chris Moneymaker the winning hand versus Sam Farha in 2003 is on the auction site eBay, with a starting bid of $5,000.
The bidding ends on July 13th.
The posting had been up for at least two days and zero bids had been recorded, as of late Saturday evening.
The seller explains how the deck was acquired:
“I was there when it all happened, working behind the scenes at Binion’s Horseshoe. I obtained permission to keep the deck, so right after Chris had posed for those famous photos where he was holding wads of cash high in the air, I carefully placed all of the cards from that final hand on top of the rest of the deck, kept in sequence, along with the dealer’s cut card, and put the complete deck back into the double Kem box along with the unused deck.”
The sell also wrote, creepily:
“You will be the only person in the world to know what the burn cards were, and the order of the rest of the deck. You will have Chris’s cards to touch, to feel, to play with in a special game, or maybe just to dream with. You might even be able to sense from them the aura, the fate, or whatever it was that day that gave Chris the luck he needed to go along with his skill.”
