Barlow Ships a Huge Pot

Level 25 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Michael Barlow
Michael Barlow

The very next hand after Michael Barlow doubled up Smith Collins, a player in early position opened to 50,000. Trying to act tilted, Barlow splashed 500,000 into the pot. The action folded all the way back to the initial raiser who quickly moved all in for 1,200,000. Barlow called even faster.

Michael Barlow: {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}
Opponent: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

The board ran out {10-Spades}{4-Hearts}{a-Spades}{8-Spades}{3-Clubs} and Barlow collected possibly the largest pot of the event thus far.

Moorman Takes From Zaichenko

Level 24 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Chris Moorman raised under the gun and got two calls, one from Andrey Zaichenko, and the other from the player in the big blind. The flop came down {j-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{6-Hearts}, and the action was checked to Zaichenko who bet 65,000. The big-blind player folded, and Moorman made the call to see the {9-Clubs} turn.

Both players checked, and on the river {8-Diamonds} they checked to showdown.

Moorman tabled {a-Spades}{5-Hearts} for top pair, and Zaichenko mucked.
