Swartz Tussles Twice with Moneymaker

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

We picked up the action on a board of {9-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{5-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} and Daniel Swartz bet 12,500. Chris Moneymaker raised to 29,000 and Swartz thought for a moment before placing out a three-bet to 50,000. Moneymaker eventually folded.

A couple of hands later, Swartz and Moneymaker were heads up again, with a board reading {8-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{k-Clubs}. Swartz check-called a bet of 20,000 and the {9-Hearts} fell on the river. Swartz led for 25,000 and Moneymaker announced "call", after some contemplation. Swartz rolled over {6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} for the rivered straight and Moneymaker incredulously mucked his hand.

Swartz is on an absolute tear in the late stages of this level, where he also busted Steven Williams in the midst of his heater.
