Moneymaker Making Flushes
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Action was picked up in a hand on the flop between four players.
The board read 10♥5♣2♥ and action checked to an early position player who bet 2,100, which Chris Moneymaker called on the button with the small blind calling behind him. In the big blind, another player moved all in for 11,200 which saw only Moneymaker call saying "Ok, I'll gamble with you."
Opponent: Q♥10♦
Chris Moneymaker: 8♥5♥
The turn 2♣ was bad news for Moneymaker as he lost his two pair outs, but the river A♥ connected with the 2003 WSOP Main Event champion as he took down a sizable pot eliminating an opponent.
At another table, Walker Miskelly walked into the tournament after just cashing in the Pot-Limit Omaha event.
