Chris Moorman raised under the gun to 9,000, Dan O'Brien called from early position and a player in the cutoff re-raised to 26,000. Moorman thought for a bit, asked the cutoff player how much he started the hand with and then 4-bet to 51,000. The player in the cutoff didn't take very much time to grab his entire stack of oranges and make it 105,000. Moorman sighed and insta-mucked his hand.
Moorman still has a healthy stack of around 420,00, but he lost a little bit after that hand.
