Big Blind Special for Morales

Level 11 : 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

With no initial raise, players saw the flop five-handed.

The player from the middle position bet out 12,000 after a {j-Clubs}{9-Spades}{q-Hearts} flop and was called by a player to his left. Action is folded around to Maria Morales who raised to 28,000 from the big blind. The player who made the initial raise folded and the other moved all-in for less.

Maria Morales: {10-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}
Opponent: {q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}

Morales had flopped the nuts while her opponent flopped two pair. The turn came the {a-Spades} and Morales just needed to doge a queen or nine to win the hand.

The dealer put the {7-Hearts} on the river and Morales knocked her opponent out of the tournament.
