Morse Rockets Up the Leaderboard
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Four players saw a flop of K♠6♠2♣ when Dale Whiteside bet 20,000 from the big blind. Kim Barnett called in the hijack, while Arlan Morse then moved all in for 85,500 on the button.
Whiteside tanked for a few minutes before folding. Barnett also took a few minutes, but he ended up calling to put Morse at risk.
Arlan Morse: A♠K♥
Kim Barnett: K♦10♦
"Ace-king? That's what I had," Whiteside said incredulously after the cards were revealed. The board ran out 6♥9♣, and Morse took down the massive pot to double up.
"I gave you a lot of credit, but now I know how you play," Whiteside told him.
