Charles Johnson Wins the Harrah's Cherokee Main Event for $272,744

 

Hand #184:

James Moon limps in on the button. 

"Whatever you do brother, I'm still gonna be here," Charles Johnson (above) says. Johnson then moves all in. Moon calls. 

James Moon:   
Charles Johnson:   

"Oh, this is gonna be a good flip," Moon says.

The flop comes down     which gives Johnson a gutshot straight draw, but keeps Moon in the lead with his pair. 

"Give him a set," Johnson says. "Give him a set!!!"

The turn is the   which gives Johnson a few extra outs. But the river is the   granting Johnson's wish, giving him a straight, and making him the champion of the Harrah's Cherokee Main Event. For his win, Johnson collects $272,744. 

James Moon (below) is eliminated in 2nd place and collects $168,700 for his run in this event.
