Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Chris Moneymaker's first Main Event cash since winning it in 2003 won't be anywhere close to what he might have been hoping for at the start of the day. Moneymaker was seen shaking hands at his table, with the ESPN camera crew also swarming the table at the same time. Unfortunately for Moneymaker, he fell at the hand of Ron West who was kind enough to relay what had happened:

Moneymaker had raised from the middle position with and West called on the button with .

The flop came with two clubs, Moneymaker check-shoved for around 250,000 when West had continued with a bet of 37,000 and West called.

No further help came on the board for Moneymaker and the former Champion was sent to the payout desk.

Hill Kerby

Level 17 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

A player in middle position raised to 20,000 and action folded around to Michael Soccio in the big blind. He three-bet to 57,000 and his opponent four-bet to put Soccio to a decision for his total stack of 543,000.

Soccio went into the tank for over two minutes, talking himself through his thought process. At one point, his voice was audible enough to hear him say that his opponent's line made no sense. Eventually, he made the call.

Michael Soccio:
Opponent:

The two players both found themselves in identical situations before the flop which came .

Soccio became animated about his newly found nine outs to a double, exclaiming and predicting that another club would come.

The turn came .

"C'mon, Marcio!" Soccio said to the dealer who was unable to keep a poker face, cracking a smile as Soccio's excitement grew.

The river fell to complete Soccio's wish, fill up his flush, and secure his double up.

"That's my dude right there!" Soccio exclaimed. "That's my dude!"

His chips were then totaled to the aforementioned figure of 543,000 and his opponent paid him, bringing him north of seven figures just before the second break of the day.
