Moore’s Pocket Pair Holds Up
Level 23
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Charles Moore was in middle position and involved in a postflop hand against Richard Peterson, who was on the button.
Moore, however, dug in throughout the hand in the face of aggression on a board showing 3♥5♥3♠. The player in the big blind was also in the hand, and he and Moore checked to Peterson, who bet 150,000, which both players called.
The 2♦ appeared on the turn, and the action once again checked to Peterson, who fired 275,000. The big blind folded, but Moore called.
The dealer placed Q♣ on the river, leading to Moore and Peterson checking.
Peterson tabled 5♠4♠, but saw his hand wasn’t good when Moore showed 9♣9♠ for the wining hand.
