Poker players earn more because they have higher exposure and name and face recognition. In the United States, more people would recognize the poker personality Phil Hellmuth than Viswanathan Anand, even though Anand is the world chess champion and has been one of the top three players in the world for almost 20 years. Not surprisingly, Hellmuth earns more money. The question of whether chess can ... | |
