Morte Stuns Coppini
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Andres Coppini has been running away with a healthy chip lead and was back at it with a raise in early position. German Morte defended from the big blind and the dealer fanned the flop of A♣8♠6♦. Morte check-called a bet of 3,500 from Coppini and the 5♦ landed on the turn.
Morte checked again and Coppini sized up a bet of 7,000 this time. Morte still called and the Q♦ completed the board. Morte checked for the third time and Coppini checked it back. Morte turned over A♦9♦ for a rivered flush and Coppini flashed his A♥ before conceding the pot.
