"I've Been Working On That Since Before You Were Born"
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Alex Milgrom opened to 15,000 in middle position and John Morgan three-bet jammed a stack of around 60,000 in the cutoff as Milgrom got up and grabbed his shoulder bag.
"Well I have to get up first," he said before calling.
John Morgan: 9♥9♣
Alex Milgrom: K♥K♦
Morgan had run into kings and was at serious risk of being eliminated on the money bubble as the flop landed 8♠5♥5♦ and the A♦ turn brought no help. Milgrom then led out a yelp as the river brought the 9♦ to give Morgan nines full of fives for a miracle double.
"That's how I run!" cheered Morgan.
"How do you do that shit?" Milgrom groaned as he was left with crumbs.
"I've been working on it for a long time. I've been working on that since before you were born!"
