Nitel Pulls Some Back
Level 6
: 300/600, 600 ante
After losing with pocket-queens, Victor Nitel has won some of his chips back in a hand involving Chris Moneymaker, William Whicher and Daniel Silverman.
It all began with an under-the-gun limp from Whicher, Moneymaker raised to 2,000. Nitel and Silverman defended in the blinds and Whicher made up the difference.
On the 
flop, it was checked round to the 
turn. Nitel bet 3,100 and Silverman and Whicher called but Moneymaker folded.
The river was the 
and Whicher made it 8,000 to play. Silverman looked tempted, even using one of his time-bank cards but in the end he passed and Whicher did the same.
