More Chips for Morgan

Jordan Morgan opened with a raise to 8,000 first into the pot. Next door, Carlos Oliveira reraised to 21,000. When it came back to Morgan, he made the smooth call to see the flop.

It brought {5-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} {A-Spades}. Morgan checked, then called a bet of 25,000 from Oliveira. On the turn, the {5-Diamonds} drew another check from Morgan. Oliveira meticulously stacked out 60,000, counted his bet four or five times, and slid it into the pot. His opponent called, and the last card off the deck was the {10-Spades}. Morgan checked, and this time Oliveira thought it best to check behind.

Jordan Morgan showed up {K-Hearts} {K-Diamonds}, and Oliveira was left to shake his head and wonder if a third bullet would have worked. He slid his cards into the muck, and the pot goes to Morgan who's moved his way up near 800,000 now.
