Chris Moorman Doubles Through Liang Xu

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

With the board reading {9-Clubs}{8-Spades}{7-Diamonds} {2-Spades} and 150,000 in the pot, Chris Moorman bet 40,000 in the big blind. His lone opponent, Liang Xu, was on the button and he moved all in. Moorman called for his whole stack, which totaled 162,000, and they showed down.

Xu: {6-Clubs}{7-Hearts}
Moorman: {10-Spades}{9-Diamonds}

Moorman was ahead with top pair and open-ended, but he had to fade Xu's straight outs. The {J-Hearts} river gave Moorman a straight and he doubled up.
