Cordes Can't Fold Fast Enough

Kasper Cordes took his time on every street of the action. Darvin Moon snapped on every street of the action. Cordes was first to act on an uncoordinated flop of {5-Hearts} {3-Clubs} {9-Spades}. He bet 125,000 before Moon made it 325,000 to go. Cordes took his time cutting off 325,000 over that raise and then slid the chips into the center of the table. Moon snap-called.

The turn was the {8-Hearts}. Again Cordes deliberated for about a minute before settling on a bet of 450,000. Moon snap-called a second time, taking the two men to the {10-Clubs} river. Cordes, perhaps sensing the strength that Moon was giving off, checked and watched as Moon instantly moved all in for 1.7 million. That was enough to convince Cordes to muck his hand.

After that adventure, Cordes has dropped to 750,000. Moon is on about 4.1 million.
