Broadway for Morris
Level 4
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Action was picked up on a board reading Q♦7♦A♥8♥ with 45,000 in the middle. Ryan Conrad ripped his stack of 15,000 into the middle, and Arthur Morris snapped him off, saying, "I'm on a flush."
Ryan Conrad: A♦Q♠9♦6♦
Arthur Morris: K♠J♥10♠6♥
Conrad was in the lead with top two, the nut diamond draw, and an open-ender. Morris, however, had plenty of outs, with any non-board pairing card above an eight giving him the nut straight. He also had hearts working for him. The K♣ river did indeed improve him to the nuts, and he sent Conrad home.
