"When Chris Moneymaker won the televised 2003 World Series of Poker after first wagering $39 in an online tournament, wannabe pro gamblers across the country turned to their own computers in hopes of repeating history. Greg "Fossilman" Raymer did just that in the 2004 championship game."
Am I reading this wrong, or does the first sentence contradict itself as to the year Raymer won? |

"With poker in particular, Whyte says, people think their skill is going to trump the random outcome of the game, and that is a very dangerous thing."
