Level 14 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Andrew Moreno
Andrew Moreno

Action was picked up between three players on a flop including Andrew Moreno in the big blind and Raffaele Sorrentino on the button.

On the 663 flop, action checked around to Sorrentino who bet 8,000 which only Moreno called.

The turn of 6 saw action check through to the J river where Moreno bet 4,000 and Sorrentino called.

"You got it," said Moreno before turning over 54 for a missed straight draw. Sorrentino turned over 99 for sixes full of nines which was good for the pot as the Italian rose even higher in the chip counts.
