Chris Moorman vs Wife Katie Lindsay for WSOP Gold Ring - Poker/Casino/Betting News from BankrollMob.com
On Wednesday evening, something unusually special happened online in the WSOP January Super Series when married poker couple Chris "Robotobob47" Moorman and Katie "katelin" Lindsay found themselves on a heads-up match for a coveted WSOP gold ring.
Both the couple happily shared their thoughts after the event, starting with Moorman.
He said, "Winning my first circuit ring ended up giving me the weirdest range of emotions I've ever felt in poker. For the past few years, Katie has always said to me how much she wants to win one. I really believe she'd rather win one more than a WSOP bracelet if you take the money out of the equation. For me it's never been a focus or goal of mine, so to get heads up with her knowing how much more she wanted it than me I definitely found it tough to handle mentally."
He continued, "The competitor in me had to give 100% as I knew there would be no point in letting her win, she would have to earn the victory the hard way, but in turn I feel like I didn't play my best and I'd be the first to admit she outplayed me heads up and I got very lucky to win in the end. Normally there is no better feeling than winning a tournament but instead of feeling good and happy when I won a huge hand after backdooring into the nuts versus her I felt guilty for potentially taking a dream away from her. I've honestly never felt that before even against close friends or horses."
"The rest of the final table was business as usual but to get heads up with one another for the first time ever was very special and is a story and experience that is really fun to share with friends and family. I'll try and be extra helpful around the house this week for stealing the ring off her but I've no doubt that she will get it in the future because she is probably the most driven person I know."
What Katie Lindsay said...
Lindsay revealed that while her husband was at home playing the tournament, she actually played most of it while out to dinner with a girlfriend. She went back home to finish playing when there was a break near the final table.
She said, "Chris and I rarely play poker in the same room so it was funny yelling at each other after big hands from opposite sides of the house. Also, we love battling for the chip lead so there was definitely a lot of banter going on there. We had a massive hand that went down six-handed where he opened small blind and I re-raised with queens in the big blind. He jammed with ace-king and I called. He had me covered at this point 1.7 mil to my 1 mil I believe, but luckily I held."
She continued, "There is no soft playing between us, we are always battling every time we end up on a table together, and we definitely showed that in this event. Once we got heads up I moved into the office where he was playing, as I thought it would be a fun dynamic to be able to see each other's faces during hands. This actually was a big heads up for us as it wasn't about the money, it's about the titles and the accomplishments. I have been fighting hard for my first circuit ring and I really wanted it. Chris had never won a circuit event either so there was more than just bragging rights on the line."
