River Shines on Corcoran
Level 4
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Ronald Corcoran got the action going with an open to 1,300 from under the gun. Jana Pavini made the call from the hijack position, but William Wolf reopened the bidding with a reraise to 7,800 from the big blind.
Corcoran shoved for 11,300 before Pavini made the fold. Wolf put in the call to put Corcoran at risk.
Ronald Corcoran: 10♦10♠
William Wolf: A♥J♠
Corcoran was in a race against Wolf, and the flop kept him in the lead when it fanned out Q♣9♥2♥.
That all changed on the J♦ turn as Wolf improved to a higher pair.
Corcoran was flirting with an exit, but the river would be his salvation when the K♠ peeled to give him a straight and earn the double up.
