Morris Scores a Double Through Pearson
Level 30
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Lou Garza raised to 400,000 with the A♦Q♠J♠J♦ and was called by Arthur Morris in the small blind with the K♥10♠9♣8♠, Travis Pearson came along with the K♦9♦7♠4♣ in the big blind. The flop came 9♠4♠3♣ and Morris checked. Pearson bet the pot and Garza reluctantly folded.
Morris counted his remaining stack of 2,775,000 to then get it in and Pearson called with his two pair.
The 8♥ turn improved Morris to superior two pair and he then rivered a flush with the 5♠ to double up.
