In 1998 the movie Rounders staring Matt Damon sparked a lot of interest in poker, those that could not play for 'real' could play online for real or fake money. One such player was Chris Moneymaker. He started playing poker online at PokerStars.com around 2000. In 2003 he played an online tournament where the top prize was an entry into the World Series of Poker. From that $40 buy-in tournament online he won his seat. He sat with some of the best in the world and won a staggering $2,500,000! Stories like this have created yet more interest in the game.
