Moneymaker Correctly Folds Top Pair
Level 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Chris Moneymaker min-raised to16,000 with the A♣5♥ on the button and Dominik Nitsche defended the big blind with the J♣9♠. Both checked the A♥Q♥8♦ flop and Nitsche bet 66,000 on the 10♣ turn. That was for more than the pot and Moneymaker gave it some thought before folding.
