Alana Morin Loses a Monster Pot

Geoffrey Herzog made a preflop raise from UTG+1, the small blind called and Alana Morin called from the big blind. The flop was {J-?} {5-?} {4-?} with two clubs. The action was checked to Herzog, who bet 75,000. The small blind folded, Morin raised to 175,000 and Herzog called. The turn was another club and both players checked. The river put a fourth club on the board. Herzog bet 300,000 and Morin made the call.

Herzog turned over {A-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} for an ace-high flush. Morin, of course, held {K-Clubs} {J-Spades} for the king-high flush and her stack was decimated.

After the hand, Herzog was up to 1,700,000 while Morin fell to 256,000.
