Visbisky Morin II: The Big Cooler

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Alex Visbisky
Alex Visbisky

Alex Visbisky and James Morin just clashed again and this time it was for a lot more marbles.

The hand started with a Cameron Bartolotta 4,000-chip open. Visbisky made it 9,000 on the button and Morin woke up with a hand he felt he could four-bet from the small blind, making it 25,000.

Bartolotta turned tail and ran, but after Visbisky five-bet to 55,000, Morin six-bet jammed. Visbisky beat him to the pot with a call, slamming his {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs} on the felt. Morin was left wondering why with the {k-Clubs}{k-Spades} and it only got worse for him through the {6-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{4-Spades} run out.

Visbisky jumped into a dead heat for the lead and although Morin had some 35,000 left, he shoved those with a dominated ace and said goodbye soon after.
