Erik Seidel Defeats Chris Moneymaker Again

Chris Moneymaker - runner-up
Chris Moneymaker - runner-up

Chris Moneymaker had almost leveled the match. He had climbed back to within 100,000 chips of Erik Seidel. He and Seidel took a raised flop of {5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}. Moneymaker had first action and checked. When Seidel led out, Moneymaker check-raised all in. Seidel quickly called.

Moneymaker let out a yelp of frustration, then tabled {k-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} -- king-high. Seidel showed {5-Spades}{4-Hearts} for trip fives. Only running cards could prevent Seidel from lifting the champion's trophy and claiming the $750,000 first prize. Maybe that might have happened to Seidel in some other year, but not in 2011. In 2011 he's running hot enough and playing great enough that the board blanked out immediately on the turn.

Chris Moneymaker finishes as the runner-up in the 2011 NBC National Heads-Up Poker Championship, good for $300,000.
