Flush Beats A Pair For Moneymaker

Level 4 : 150/300, 50 ante

Vyacheslav Bondartsev opened from mid-position for 700 and with no one else willing to give him action Team PokerStars Pro Chris Moneymaker in the big blind obliged him with a call.

They checked the action down to the river of a board reading {9-Spades}{4-Hearts}{7-Spades}{k-Hearts}{q-Hearts} where Moneymaker led out for 1,400.

Moneymaker tabled the {j-Hearts}{7-Hearts}. Bondartsev briefly thought he had won with a rivered top pair but, as Moneymaker pointed out, “Flush.”
