Morris Doubles Through Barakat
Level 20
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Pot-Limit Omaha
Arthur Morris limped in from middle position and called when Youness Barakat raised the pot to 180,000 from the hijack.
Morris only had 315,000 behind, and he was put all-in by Barakat on the 2♠2♦6♦ flop. After some thought, he called off for his tournament life.
Arthur Morris: Q♦J♦10♥7♥
Youness Barakat: K♠K♣9♥5♠
Morris hit his flush on the 10♦ turn, and the 10♣ river did not bring Barakat a full house. Morris doubled up to a seven-figure stack, leaving Barakat with 15 big blinds.
