WPT VIENNA: MOORMAN RISING IN AUSTRIA

PICTURE: WPT

Chris Moorman is working hard at collecting his first ever WPT Main Event cash. Moorman sits second in chips after Day 2 play at WPT Vienna in Austria.

It's shocking to read that Moorman has never cashed at a WPT Main Event given his success at other big events on the poker circuit. With only about 20 eliminations left before the money bubble, it certainly looks like Moorman is well on his way to collecting a few Euros in Vienna.

Tristan Wade and former EPT Berlin winner Ben Wilinofsky are two other big names at the top of the Leaderboard.
