Moneymaker Snaps Fingers, Jacob Snaps Up Chips

On a {Q-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{4-Hearts} flop, Chris Moneymaker led out for 30,500 and was called by both Matthew "adz124" Marafioti and Alex Jacob. The turn was the {10-Hearts}. Moneymaker and Marafioti both checked, Jacob bet 75,000, Moneymaker called, and Marafioti got out of the way.

The river was the {10-Spades}. Moneymaker checked, and Jacob announced he was all in with his last 137,000.

Moneymaker went into the tank, then looked in Jacob's direction. "Show if I fold?" he asked. No reply. "Hello?" Nothing. Moneymaker then tried a new tactic -- he snapped his fingers in front of Jacob sitting across from him. Still, nada.

Finally Moneymaker let it go. He still has a healthy stack of 665,000. Meanwhile, Jacob has moved up to 470,000.
