button in SafariMorris Eliminates Xiong and Takes from Anderson
Level 14
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Davin Anderson opened to 12,000 from under the gun before Nang Xiong threw in her final 9,000 from the next seat over. Thomas Morris joined from the big blind to create a three-handed pot.
The 4♦3♠5♥ flop was checked by both remaining players.
It checked to Anderson on the 2♥ turn before he fired 20,000. Morris check-raised all-in for 139,000, which sent Anderson into the tank.
Anderson eventually made the call as a three-way showdown broke out.
Nang Xiong: K♣J♥
Thomas Morris: A♥6♠
Davin Anderson: A♦10♠
Anderson found out the bad news as Morris had the higher straight. Xiong and Anderson were only drawing to a chop.
The 5♠ river was not a chop as Morris took down the pot to eliminate Xiong and take a sizeable sum from Anderson late on Day 1b.
