Moneymaker = Busto

After losing a race with pocket tens versus Big Slick, Chris Moneymaker was short stacked and down to his last 4,800 in chips. He shoved from early position. The button reraised a huge amount and the blinds quickly folded.

Moneymaker: {9-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

Opponent:

{A-Clubs}

{Q-Diamonds}

The flop was {J-?}

{J-?}

{10-?}

{4-?}

and Moneymaker flopped an open-ended straight draw.

"Queen ball!" shouted Moneymaker as he stood up.

The turn was a blank and the river was a {K-?}

{K-?}

. His opponent rivered a Broadway straight (but was ahead anyway) to win the pot. After a long day 1a, Moneymaker was eliminated.
