Morris Bows Out on a Table Full of Big Stacks
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Alberto Destrade opened to 55,000 in middle position and Meerwais Hussaini three-bet to 140,000 in the hijack. Stephanie Morris flat-called on the button and Destrade came along as well.
The flop came Q♠8♦6♦ and Hussaini continued with a bet of 160,000. Morris raised to 400,000 which got Destrade to fold but Hussaini ripped all in for 1,075,000. Morris had a decision to make for the extra 460,000 in front of her and she gave it some thought for nearly three minutes before calling.
Stephanie Morris: K♠K♥
Meerwais Hussaini: Q♣Q♦
"I thought that's what you had," Morris said realizing she was down to just two outs. The 3♠ on the turn and the J♣ on the river was not going to save her as Morris headed to collect her payout.
