Top Full Over Second Full Sends Moneymaker Packing
David Brown raised to 600 from the cutoff and in the small blind, Chris Moneymaker called.
The flop rolled out J♠J♣6♥ and Moneymaker check-called a bet of 500 from Brown.
Both players checked the turn 10♠ to the river Q♥ where Moneymaker bet 2,500. Brown responded with a raise to 10,000, prompting Moneymaker to raise to 20,000. Brown moved all in for 47,000 effective and Moneymaker went into the tank.
"Do you really have pocket queens?" asked Moneymaker as he pondered a decision for his tournament life. He talked through a few more parts of the hand before eventually relenting and putting the chips in the middle saying, "If you've got queens, you've got queens."
Chris Moneymaker: Q♠J♦
David Brown: Q♦Q♣
Brown had rivered a one-outer to make queens full of jacks, besting Moneymaker's jacks full of queens. Brown raked in a sizable pot while the 2003 WSOP Main Event champion was eliminated from the tournament.
