He was already in debt, and he's certainly not the calibur of player to be playing higher than this. I would be very surprised if he played higher than this.

I said there is no way 100/200 is low limit to MM, meaning that 100/200 is most certainly not a publicity play or something one might consider "low limit" to him. Rob

Re: Tell me what you think. Chris Moneymaker 1/2 hand
not that it matters, but does moneymaker have a dedicated table to play at on PS?
if they run "pro" tables like at fulltilt, then it would not surprise me if he pays people off simply so they can say: "i swept a pot from moneymaker on PS".. good advertising and good PR... also he may be used to calling people down simply because he has zero fold equity.
