Action From the Feature Table

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

We happened by the feature table just in time to see Christopher Morkan moved all in for 25,700 and receive a call from Spain's Guilabert Bernabeu on the button. The blinds folded and the cards were turned on their backs.

Morkan: {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}
Bernabeu: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}

It was a flip, and Morkan was on his feet asking the dealer for a little luck. The {2-Spades}{7-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} flop seemed safe enough, as did the {2-Hearts} river. All Morkan needed to do was dodge an ace and queen on the river, which he did when the {10-Clubs} blanked on the river.

"Thank you," Morkan said as he retook his seat.

Bernabeu, who got off to a quick start today, has fallen back down to earth rather quickly.
