Moneymaker Living Large Again

There have been lots of peaks and valleys for Chris Moneymaker today. He's climbing high once again after eliminating an opponent. The hand was a heads-up raised flop of {7-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}. Moneymaker's opponent took the lead with a bet of 1,800 that Moneymaker called. When the turn came {10-Spades}, Moneymaker's opponent made another bet of 3,200. Moneymaker raised that bet to 8,200, then called after his opponent moved all in. That player's pocket kings, {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}, were drawing dead against Moneymaker's made straight, {j-Hearts}{8-Hearts}. The river {2-Hearts} sealed the deal.
