Roussel Puts Moran in Tricky River Spot
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Stanislas Roussel in middle position raised to 1,300 and it folded around to Daniel Moran on the button, who three-bet to 3,500. Roussel four-bet to 10,000 and Moran called.
The flop came 8♠10♦5♣ and saw both players check the hand through to the 9♦ on the turn. Roussel took the lead and bet out for 7,500. Moran called.
The J♠ on the river put a four straight on board and Roussel jammed for 10,300. Moran went into the tank agonizing over his decision before finally folding.
"Aces or Kings?" one of the players at the table asked Moran.
"Aces" he replied.
