Moran Flying High After Stacking Opponent

Level 5 : 300/600, 600 ante

With 6,200 chips already in the middle on the {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{k-Spades}{6-Spades} board, the late-position player bet 5,200. James Moran, sitting in the hijack seat, min-clicked it up to 10,400.

The late-position player then went all-in for 30,300 total and Moran snap-called.

Late Position: {a-Spades}{10-Hearts}
James Moran: {q-Spades}{j-Spades}

Moran had flopped a straight and improved to the second nut flush but still had to sweat the river as his opponent had two pair plus the nut flush draw.

However, the {7-Hearts} completed the board and Moran stacked his opponent while taking his stack into six-figure territory.
