Chris Moneymaker continues to move up the leaderboard now on 100,000-plus.

He flatted when the player to his right opened up for 3,500. The small blind came along for the ride and they went three-handed to an {a-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} flop. The small blind checked and the original raiser made it 4,000. Only Moneymaker called.

Staring down his opponent on the {k-Diamonds} turn, Moneymaker called another bet, this time for 8,000. The {3-Spades} river completed the board and Moneymaker's opponent bet 16,000.

Moneymaker called without hesitation and dragged the sizable pot with {a-Clubs}{6-Clubs} after his opponent could only show {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}.
