Moneymaker Busts One

We joined in the rush of ESPN cameramen to the table of Chris Moneymaker after the familiar cry of "All in! Call!" was heard.

Moneymaker wasn't the one at risk but a fair chunk of his change was in the middle on a board of {J-Spades}{2-Spades}{10-Spades}{8-Diamonds}.

Moneymaker opened {J-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for two pair which was ahead of his opponent's {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}, but both had to nervously wait for the cameras to get into position before the river was dealt.

In a moment that probably won't make the TV cut, the river anti-climatically landed the {9-Hearts} and Moneymaker's two pair held to eliminate his opponent. Moneymaker is back up to 44,000.
