Andrey Sakolishch Takes A Pot From Moneymaker

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante

Chris Moneymaker was a minute or two late back from the dinner break and was straight into the action raising to 1,500 from middle position. Andrey Sakolishch three-bet out of the small blind to 3,500 and Moneymaker made the call.

The flop of {7-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{a-Clubs} was checked to see the {4-Clubs} hit the turn. Sakolishch led out for 4,000 and Moneymaker stuck around.

The river card was the {4-Hearts} and neither player was inclined to put anymore chips in the pot. Sakolishch showed {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} for top pair and that was good enough.
