Sands Suffers Sick Beat

We’re not quite sure how all of the chips got into the middle but we just found Christopher Moore all in preflop for 429,000 and at risk against David Sands and we presume that Moore shoved at some point and Sands made the call.

Sands: {A-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}
Moore: {9-Clubs}{5-Clubs}

Even though Moore only held nine-high, he wasn’t all that far behind Sands and he certainly wasn’t once Moore paired his five on the {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{5-Spades} flop. Moore looked even better when he hit another five on the turn with the {5-Hearts} and now Sands could only chop the pot with a six on the end. The river was the {4-Diamonds} and Moore doubled up while Sands took a hit.
