Moneymaker Cracks Aces for Massive Pot

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

(Hand took place during 800/1,600 blind levels on the PokerGO stream, which is on a 45-minute delay)

On the side feature table, Chris Moneymaker was caught in a hand with {2-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} against an opponent's {a-Spades}{a-Clubs} on a flop of {2-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{7-Hearts}. His opponent bet out 15,000 into a pot of 25,400 and the 2003 world champion slow-played and just called.

The turn was a nice clean {3-Spades} for Moneymaker, who faced a bet of 42,000 and then jammed for 129,000. His opponent took a bit of time before inevitably deciding on a call.

The river was the {j-Diamonds}, giving Moneymaker a 313,800-chip pot and the former champ is now a force in the 2021 World Series of Poker Main Event on Day 2.
