Moorman Takes A Big One Post Dinner Break

On one of the first hands back from dinner break, Chris Moorman took a big pot off of Dan O'Brien.

Moorman raised to 55,000 from the cutoff and Dan O'Brien re-raised to 148,000 from the small blind and Moorman called.

The flop came out {j-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} and O'Brien bet out 162,000. Moorman in his methodical, slow method counted out his chips and called.

The turn was {10-Diamonds} and O'Brien bet out 258,000 with Moorman again calling.

The river came the {k-Diamonds} to put four diamonds on the board and O'Brien checked to Moorman who moved all in. O'Brien said, "I think I had you the whole way but that's as ugly as a board can get" and tossed his hand in the muck.

O'Brien fell to just above 1,000,000 after the hand and Moorman is up to nearly 2,000,000.
