Robinson Finishes off Moneymaker
After taking the majority of Chris Moneymaker's chips not long ago, Andrew Robinson completed the job and eliminated the 2003 Main Event champ in a recent hand.
After Jonathan Therme raised to 60,000 in early position, Robinson three-bet to 160,000 to his immediate left. Moneymaker then moved all in from late position and everyone folded to Robinson, who called.
Chris Moneymaker: 
Andrew Robinson: 
The flop came 
, giving Moneymaker a set to take a stranglehold on the hand, but Robinson still had a gutshot Broadway draw.
Then just as he did in their previous encounter, Robinson indeed outdrew Moneymaker, drilling the 
on the turn.
The river 
couldn't save Moneymaker, and despite holding large percentage leads in back to back hands with Robinson, he dropped both to be sent to the rail.
