Murphy Loses Most in Preflop Cooler
Level 31
: Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
Mark Murphy raised to 300,000 in the hijack and was faced with a three-bet to 800,000 from Nikolaos Angelou on the button. Murphy then four-bet to 2,400,000, which Angelou clicked back to 4,000,000.
Murphy opted to six-bet jam, putting Angelou's stack of 7,575,000 at risk, and a snap-call followed.
Nikolaos Angelou: A♥A♣
Mark Murphy: Q♠Q♣
The 7♥6♥8♠5♠ turn brought some chop outs, but the J♣ river brought no further help for Murphy's queens.
Angelou grabbed a massive double-up with his aces and ended with three times the average stack, while Murphy was left short with just over five big blinds at his disposal.
