Moraru Dodges a Lot of Outs
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Yunkyu Song opened to 20,000 from the hijack then Catalin Moraru shoved for 154,000 out of the big blind. Song stood up and put his jacket on, which is normally a good indicator that he wants to get involved in the pot, then called.
Catalin Moraru: 6♠6♥
Yunkyu Song: A♦10♦
The flop of J♣9♠8♠ gave Song a plethora of outs but neither the K♥ turn nor 5♦ river was the card he was looking for, which earned Moraru a double-up in the opening level of the day.
