Morris’ Pocket Queens Hold for Double Up
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Pete Morris found himself in a good spot to accumulate chips.
The player under the gun limped, and then a player in middle position raised to 3,000. Morris, who was next to act, moved all in. The button asked Morris for a chip count.
“About 27,000,” Morris replied.
The button eventually called, an action that caused both blinds, the player under the gun, and the original raiser all fold.
“Aces?” Morris asked as he tabled Q♦Q♥.
“No,” the opponent replied as he showed 10♦10♥.
The board then ran out 6♣2♠A♥J♦5♠ giving Morris a much-needed double up.
