Slight Applause for Moneymaker

World Champion Chris Moneymaker is playing to a stadium of spectators and fans located in the ESPN feature table area today. Chris was heads-up against a single opponent with a board of {Q-Clubs}{7-Spades}{6-Hearts}. His opponent led out and Chris made the call. His opponent bet when the {5-Spades} fell on the turn and Chris called again. The river was the {5-Diamonds} and Chris checked, as did his opponent.

Moneymaker turned over 8-5, flopping the open-ended straight draw and ending up with trips. The crowd let out a slight applause as he scooped up the chips.
