Morrison Doubles Through Thuritz

Pot Limit Omaha

We haven't mentioned Kirk Morrison much today, as his overnight chip lead has slowly slipped away, but he's just found a much needed double up at the expense of Mikael Thuritz.

Morrison's last chips were in the middle on the turn on a flop of {10-Hearts}{8-Spades}{6-Clubs}{K-Spades}. Thuritz tabled {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}-X-X for top set but would need to fill up on the river as Morrison showed {9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{8-Clubs} for a flopped straight.

The river bricked the {7-Clubs} and Morrison doubles to 640,000 as Thuritz slides to 600,000.
