Espinar Stays Alive

Level 38 : 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
Elven Espinar
Elven Espinar

Chris Moorman opened to 2,000,000 from middle position and Elven Espinar called from the cutoff. The button and blinds got out of the way to send the two players heads-up to the flop.

Moorman led out on the {7-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{6-Spades} flop and Espinar promptly moved all in. Moorman, with the larger stack, snap called to put Espinar at risk.

Elven Espinar: {a-Spades}{8-Spades}
Chris Moorman: {a-Clubs}{9-Spades}

Moorman was ahead with top pair top kicker but Espinar had an open ended straight draw. He wasted little time hitting that draw on the {10-Hearts} turn, leaving Moorman drawing to an unlikely chop. The {2-Clubs} ensured there would be no chop, handing Espinar a full double up.

Henry Reyes

Chris Moorman opened to 2,000,000 from middle position and was called by Henry Reyes out of the big blind.

Reyes bet 2,000,000 into the preflop raiser on a flop of {7-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}. Moorman responded with a raise to 5,000,000, prompting Reyes to go into the tank. After about a minute Reyes announced all in and Moorman snap-called to put Reyes at risk.

Henry Reyes: {10-Clubs}{9-Spades}
Chris Moorman: {k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

Both players made top pair on the flop but Moorman was ahead with the superior kicker. Nothing changed on the {j-Hearts} turn or {7-Diamonds} river, forcing Reyes out of the tournament in eighth place for $28,802.

Josh Prager jammed in the cutoff for 7,100,000 and Chris Moorman called from the big blind.

Josh Prager: {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}
Chris Moorman: {7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}

"We need a seven!" Yelled Moorman to his rail.

The flop came {a-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{5-Hearts} and changed nothing, while the {6-Spades} hit the turn giving both players a straight draw. The {q-Clubs} river was a brick and Prager collected his double.

Ladies Hold for Guidez

Sebastien Guidez

Sebastien Guidez moved all in from middle position and action folded to Chris Moorman on the button, who made the call. The blinds got out of the way and Guidez was officially at risk.

Sebastien Guidez: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Chris Moorman: {k-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

Guidez was ahead, with Moorman holding only three immediate outs. The {5-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} flop changed nothing, nor did the {9-Spades} turn. The {3-Diamonds} river completed a clean runout for Guides, who doubled to 13,000,000.
