Making Money

Graeme "Kiwi G" Putt has come all the way from his home country of New Zealand to Australia, only to be taken out of the APPT in Melbourne by an American.

With a preflop raise from Team PokerStars Pro Chris Moneymaker, Putt would three-bet and see a call from Moneymaker that would bring the {8-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{2-Clubs} to the flop.

On this flop Moneymaker check-raised all-in for 42,800. Putt made the call and saw his tournament life on the line holding {k-}{k-} against the {5-Diamonds}{5-Spades} of Moneymaker.

The turn and river bricked out and it was home for the kiwi and a nice pot for the yank.
