Josh Brikis Just Stacked Chris Moon to Move Back Above 2 Million
Josh Brikis Just Stacked Chris Moon to Move Back Above 2 Million

Josh Brikis was the first player to cross the 2 million chip, and although he dipped a bit below those lofty standards of late, his latest hand just catapulted Brikis back to the upper echelon of our chip counts.

After a raise to 130,000 from Moon on the button, Brikis defended his blind by reraising to 275,000. Moon deliberated for thirty seconds or so before announcing himself all in, and before the red button signifying his at-risk state hit the felt in front of him, he heard Brikis snap-call with authority.

"Good luck Brikis," offered Moon as he saw that his {A-Clubs}{j-Clubs} was drawing thin against a made hand in {Q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}.

The flop furthered Brikis' lead by gifting him a four-flush, coming {k-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}. The turn ({7-Clubs}) and river ({5-Diamonds}) only kept him out in front, and his diamond flush downed Moon in 8th place.
