More Chips for Moneymaker

Chris Moneymaker led out for 800 preflop from early position after a player had limped in under the gun. The small blind called the bet, but the under-the-gun player moved all in for 11,425 more. Chris made the call and the small blind got out of the way.

Chris showed A-Q and would need help after his opponent showed pocket kings. An ace fell on the flop to give Chris top pair and his opponent failed to improve.

After the hand, Chris is up to 51,650
