Unusual column on Moneymaker's win at the WSOP in The Guardian:
The geeks had had their day and if Moneymaker has gumption he'll have invested all his winnings on Norway at 14-1 to win the Eurovision Song Contest.Link to column; more generic AP story here.Whatever happened next he would benefit. If Norway won, and it would be a travesty if a Scandinavian singing a cover of Gilbert O'Sullivan's Clare were not to prevail, Moneymaker, with more than $30,000,000 in his pocket, will be set for life.
If Norway don't win, then, having blown two-and-a-half million dollars on a sports bet he will be able to call himself a 'professional gambler'.
