We found Chris Moneymaker considering a bet of 48,500 from an opponent in the cutoff. Moneymaker had checked the final board of {q-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{2-Hearts}{5-Spades}{5-Diamonds} from early position.

"Quad fives?" he said. "Pocket deuces? You've either got quads...a set of jacks...a set of twos...a draw..."

Moneymaker's voice trailed off, and he opted to look his opponent up. His first instinct was on: {5-Clubs}{5-Hearts}. Moneymaker shook his head and mucked {q-Clubs} face up.

"Nice hand," he said with resignation.
