Moreno Flying High
Level 21
: 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
The board already showed 
when Andrew Moreno, in the cutoff, was facing an all-in bet from his opponent for a stack around 320,000. Moreno tanked for some time before opting to call with 
for a pair of jacks and a flush draw. His opponent, holding 
had a pair of jacks with the best kicker.
The river fell 
and Moreno conceded the double up to his opponent. While Moreno lost this pot, he's still among the top stacks in the tournament. In 2016, Moreno finished in 6th place in this very tournament, winning $219,632, and he'll be looking to improve on that performance this year.
