Morales Has the Better Kicker
Level 4
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Ashley "Ash Kardash" Morales was left with a short stack after losing a big pot with pocket queens and picked up some chips just now. She called a raise to 1,100 by the hijack and then called another bet worth 1,500 on the 10♠2♠2♥ flop. They checked the 7♦ turn and 9♥ river for the hijack to announce ace-five.
Morales had the superior kicker with the A♠J♥ to win the pot. "I needed that one," she exclaimed in table chat.
