Yita Choong: 10♦10♣

Twenty years after his defining victory in the 2003 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event that ignited the Poker Boom, Chris Moneymaker came to Las Vegas looking to further his already cemented status as one of the most important figures in poker history.
Only 27 years old at the time, Moneymaker spun a $40 satellite victory into $2.5 million in perhaps the most memorable and consequential WSOP victory of all time. Now a household name in poker, Moneymaker has now put up a $50,000 buy-in — the biggest of his two-decade poker career — to play the prestigious WSOP Poker Players Championship for the first time at the 2023 WSOP.
PokerNews spoke with Moneymaker during Day 1 on June 18 as he battled against the likes of Daniel Negreanu, Josh Arieh and two-time defending champion Dan "Jungleman" Cates, all of whom were seated at the 2003 Main Event champion's table.
Sean Picquelle opened to 260,000 from early position and then, after asking for a count, called when Matthew Sesso moved all in for 1,700,000 on the button.
Matthew Sesso: 3♦3♠
Sean Picquelle: K♥K♠
As Picquelle turned over his hand, a ripple of disbelief passed through the table that he had taken so long to make the call. Nevertheless, he did have Sesso in dire straits, with no help coming for the small pocket pair on the 7♦4♠A♣ flop. The K♦ turn ensured there would be no sweat as the 3♥ river rubbed a little salt into the wound for Sesso.
