Moorman Flops The Nuts
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
A player in middle position opened to 2,100 and Minh Nguyen called next to act. The cutoff called as well and Chris Moorman put in a three-bet to 8,700 on the button. All three players came along and the dealer fanned out a flop of 7♥5♣4♦.
The initial raiser checked to Nguyen who tossed out a small bet of 3,500 and only the cutoff and Moorman called. On the 5♥ turn the action checked through to the 4♠ river.
Nguyen and the cutoff checked to Moorman who took some time before betting 40,000, leaving only 500 behind. Nguyen quickly folded and the cutoff snap-called for their last 35,000.
Moorman rolled over 8♥6♥ for the flopped nut-straight and his opponent tabled 8♣8♦ for the over pair as they made their way to the exit.
