Up and Down for Moorman
Here's something that you probably already knew. Chris Moorman is an action player. We figured with the money bubble looming that he would be getting involved in a lot of pots, and so far, he hasn't disappointed.
In the first hand, we saw Blaz Svara raise it up to 2,100, and Cliff Goldkind call from the button. Moorman was in the small blind, and he put in a three bet to 7,500. Svara folded after about a minute of thought, but Goldkind stuck around for the call. The flop came down 
, and Moorman fired out 7,700. He was called, and the turn brought the 
. Again Moorman fired out, this time for 12,500, and Goldkind tanked for a minute or so before calling.
The river was the 
, and Moorman slowed down and checked this time. Goldkind decided to go all in, a move that would cost Moorman almost all of his chips if he lost. Moorman thought for about a minute, rechecked his hole cards, then sent them to the dealer, giving the pot to Goldkind.
Just a couple of hands later, we caught river action between Moorman and Thom Werthmann The board had completed 
, and Moorman had fired out a pot sized bet of 18,000. This was for virtually all of Werthmann's chips, as he would have just 2,000 left after. Eventually, he slid in the call, and Moorman rolled over 
for trip eights. Werthmann mucked, and busted shortly after.
