Morreale Turns the Nuts to Take the Chip Lead
Level 26
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Calogero Morreale raised to 80,000 in middle position with A♣Q♣ and Ravi Sheth called in the hijack, as did Akshat Bansal in the big blind.
The flop came J♣6♣5♦ and Morreale bet 100,000. Sheth called, but Bansal then raised to 275,000. Morreale called, while Sheth laid down 10♠10♥.
The 7♣ turn improved Morreale to the nut flush as Bansal bet another 225,000. Morreale called and the 4♠ fell on the river.
Bansal slowed down and checked, and Morreale moved all in. Bansal had 1,055,000 remaining and got away from 4♥3♠ for a straight as Morreale took the big pot to move into the chip lead.
