Gibson Spikes the River to Double Off Moon
Level 13
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Jeff Gibson raised to 13,000 in middle position and Seunghwan Moon called on the button, as did the big blind.
The flop came 7♠3♦6♠ and Gibson bet 20,000. Moon then raised to 50,000 and the big blind got out of the way, while Gibson moved all in for 261,000. Moon quickly called.
Jeff Gibson: Q♣Q♠ 
Seunghwan Moon: 7♥6♥
Gibson showed two queens, but Moon had flopped two pair to take the lead. The 9♠ turn gave Gibson some hope with a flush draw, and he spiked his flush on the K♠ river to earn the double up.
Moon, who had built his stack up past 500,000 earlier today, was left with just 50,000 after taking this hit.
