McCormick Trips Up Vornicu

Level 7 : Limits 2,500/5,000, 0 ante

Tom McCormick: XxXx/33710/Xx
Valentin Vornicu: XxXx/67A8/Xx
Daniel Negreanu: XxXx/4Q7 - folded on fifth street
Brad Ruben: XxXx/Q2A - folded on fifth street

Valentin Vornicu completed and was called by Daniel Negreanu and Brad Ruben. "I guess I intimidated everyone by how I put my chips in," Tom McCormick said as he also called as the bring-in.

McCormick made a pair on fourth street and led out with a bet. All three opponents called. McCormick bet again on fifth, and only Vornicu called this time.

McCormick bet on sixth and Vornicu called once more. Both players checked on seventh, and McCormick showed 943 for trips to win the pot.
