Taylor Takes a Big One

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 100 ante
Jonathan Taylor (Day 1)
Jonathan Taylor (Day 1)

Chris Moneymaker raised to 2,500 on the button, Jonathan Taylor three-bet to 7,000 out of the big blind, and Moneymaker called.

The flop came down {8-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{8-Hearts}, Moneymaker called a bet of 6,000, and the turn was the suicide king ({k-Hearts}). Taylor slowed down, check-calling a bet of 13,000 from Moneymaker, and the {q-Diamonds} completed the board.

Taylor checked, Moneymaker bombed 30,000 into the pot, and Taylor went into the tank. He cut out enough chips to make the call, examined what would be left if he incorrectly committed them, then flipped them forward.

"Ace-high," Moneymaker said.

Taylor showed {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts} for tens and eights, and raked in a big pot.
