Moneymaker Making Money

We caught up to see the remnants of a hand where Chris Moneymaker was all in for his tournament life before the flop with {K-Diamonds}{5-Spades} against an opponent's {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}.

Moneymaker struck gold on the {K-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{3-Hearts} flop and held his lead through the {10-Hearts} turn and the {7-Clubs} river.

"You guys never catch me when I get my money in good!" Moneymaker said with a smile to our reporters. Regardless of how the chips were made, Moneymaker is now sitting on a stack of about 85,000
