Morris Holds On
Level 18
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Leon Sturm raised from the cutoff to 24,000, receiving calls from Stephanie Morris on the button and Pierre Mothes in the big blind.
All three players checked the A♠A♣K♥ flop, and the dealer provided the A♥ turn.
Mothes chose to lead out for a bet of 18,000, which only Morris called.
The river brought the 10♦ and both players checked. Morris was quick to table her 8♠8♦, and Mothes returned his cards to the dealer face down.
