Moneymaker Bombs the River

Level 10 : 400/800, 75 ante
Chris Moneymaker
Chris Moneymaker

Chris Moneymaker opened to 1,600 from early position, Toby Mathews called in the cutoff, and the flop came all clubs; {2-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{8-Clubs}. Both players checked.

The turn was a repeat eight - the {8-Spades} - and Moneymaker led out for 6,000. Mathews called.

The river was the {9-Diamonds}, and Moneymaker dropped a bomb, firing 30,000. Mathews went deep into the tank, considering the one-and-a-half-pot bet, and ultimately folded {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts} face up.

Moneymaker didn't show, rather he slid his cards forward facedown and raked in the pot.
