Runner-Runner Straight Staves Off Bubble Bursting
Level 17
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Action folded to John Morgan who jammed for just over 100,000 from late position. Yang Lu made the call to set up a runout with Morgan at risk.
John Morgan: A♥Q♠
Yang Lu: A♠A♦
The flop came 4♥6♠10♦, leaving Morgan with only runner-runner outs to the win. The K♠ came in on the turn and brought with it half of the needed running outs for Morgan to double and keep bubble play in action.
When the J♣ completed the board and Morgan's straight, the room let out a collective gasp as the sick runout keeps everyone in bubble play and still out of the money.
