Morton Hears a Who

Level 31 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

From the cutoff, John Riordan made his mini-raise to 160,000, and Mike Morton reraised all in for 660,000 total. Riordan had plenty of chips to make the call with {8-Spades} {9-Diamonds}, and Morton's {Q-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} had him poised for the double up.

The board ran out {K-Hearts} {A-Hearts} {7-Clubs} {A-Spades} {4-Spades}, and Morton's queen holds to earn him the double. He's back to about 1.4 million now, knocking Riordan down a peg. He's still in control of the big stack (and nearly half the chips in play) with 6.55 million left.
