Chris Moore Goes Straight to Day 2

On Table 38, Chris Moore raised preflop with {8-?} {6-?} and called by his opponent who held {J-?} {9-?} .

When his opponent checked a flop of {7-?} {10-?} {Q-?} , Moore pushed all in and got the call. A blank on the turn provided no help, but a {9-?} on the river gave Moore the straight and a return trip back for Day 2.

Meanwhile, on Table 22, Leon Yanovski finally ended his marathon heads-up battle with Troy Sprungl when his {A-?} {9-?} held up against Sprungl's {J-?} {9-?} .
