Steve Zolotow was all in holding A Moneymaker Hurting After Tony G Double Up Tony G was all in holding A-K against Chris Moneymaker’s pocket queens. The board ran out 8-6-2-K-J, giving Guoga the winning pair of kings and taking a huge chunk of Moneymaker’s stack. After the hand, Moneymaker was down to just 230,000 while Guoga chipped up to over 830,000.
Humberto Brenes moved all in on the short stack from the cutoff and Greg Raymer made the call in the small blind. The action moved to Andrew Robl in the big blind, who appeared to be contemplating a call. After a while, some members of the table got up and Robl realized the action was on him. He quickly folded and Brenes showed A-7 offsuit. Raymer revealed pocket nines and they held to bust THE CHARK from the tournament. Ted Forrest Wakes Up, Gets Moneymaker’s Stack
