Raghavan-ward and Upward

Ravi Raghavan opened to 2,500 in early position, and he found calls from Jonathan Aguiar (button) and Chris Moneymaker (big blind).

Three-handed then, the flop brought {J-Spades} {4-Hearts} {5-Spades} and a leading bet from Moneymaker. He made it 3,700 to call and this time only Raghavan matched the bet to see another card.

It was the {9-Spades}, and Moneymaker knocked the felt. Raghavan bet 6,700, Moneymaker made a few quiet comments under his breath and folded, and the pot is pushed.

It goes to Raghavan, moving him up right to 100,000. Moneymaker's loss drops him back to a still-just-fine 52,000.
