Morgan Gets it All

Level 1 : 100/200, 200 ante

Action picked up on the flop in a large, heads-up pot. The board read {q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}.

In position, Claude Morgan bet 25,000 into the pot. His opponent moved all in and Morgan called.

Claude Morgan: {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades}
Opponent: {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}

Morgan was up against top set, but he had the overpair and the flush draw.

The {7-Diamonds} hit the turn to vault Morgan into the lead. The river failed to pair the board, Morgan eliminated his opponent, and now has more than doubled his starting stack as the end of level one approaches.
