Moreno Flying High

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

The board already showed {8-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{2-Clubs} when Andrew Moreno, in the cutoff, was facing an all-in bet from his opponent for a stack around 320,000. Moreno tanked for some time before opting to call with {j-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for a pair of jacks and a flush draw. His opponent, holding {a-Spades}{j-Spades} had a pair of jacks with the best kicker.

The river fell {7-Diamonds} and Moreno conceded the double up to his opponent. While Moreno lost this pot, he's still among the top stacks in the tournament. In 2016, Moreno finished in 6th place in this very tournament, winning $219,632, and he'll be looking to improve on that performance this year.
