Defending champ, HPO ambassador and 2003 World Series of Poker Main Event winner Chris Moneymaker made it 300 to see a flop, getting one caller in the blinds.

The caller checked the {6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} flop, but called when Moneymaker led for 500. He check-called again when Moneymaker bet 800 on the {7-Hearts} turn, but fired out 1,100 at the {k-Spades} river.

Moneymaker made the call, but mucked when he was shown {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}.
