Moneymaker and Fishman at final table

[jillaj]

I am sure Raymer and Moneymaker got a buy in to each event from Pokerstars. I imagine the more pro's the better for stars.

I believe these two and only these two do, but I am not certain.

I heard that all of "Team Pokerstars" gets free buy-ins.

Greg Raymer, Chris Moneymaker, Evelyn Ng, and Wil Wheaton (<-- lol).

He plays poker everyday, he has recorded 4 finished in 3 years, out of say, 200 tourneys? he is da man!!!

2.5 Million is all that matters!

He didn't get very much of that.

I heard he sold off 50% (?) of himself after winning his seat. Then factor in taxes. Then factor in his wife getting half when they split up.

I'm guessing he took home maybe $400,000 or so when all was said and done.
