Look, I'm not one to give out this compliment lightly but it's simply a fact that Chris Moneymaker is a hell of a guy.

So much so, in fact, that when I came to him this week looking for some honest advice on how to turn my results around at the tables, the Poker Hall of Famer couldn't have been happier to jump at the chance to offer my some words of wisdom that I'll truly carry with me for the rest if my life.

I offer it up to you again here because frankly, I think these words offer guidance that we'd all be better off for having.

Chris Moneymaker FINALLY won something

The past week at the MGM National Harbor for the Maryland edition of another Moneymaker Tour stop was a fun one for all involved but the man himself may have been the biggest winner of all.

You might be asking yourself, 'Did he win the Main Event?' No. Not even close.

But he did happen to FINALLY manage to win one of his own trophies after over two years of trying and the interview is hilarious. Congrats, Chris! It's about time you won something.

I'm not superstitious, but I'm a little stitious

If you can't tell yet, this week's lowdown is all content I made at the most recent Moneymaker Tour stop. I tried not to but I just can't help it. It's a little ridiculous (and off-putting) how much I laugh to myself when watching these pieces of content and that's what I hope you'll do, too.

I have absolutely no idea how this piece of content came to be but I do know this: it makes me and Elle laugh REALLY hard and I hope it'll do the same for you.
