Bluff Turns into Double Up for Moorman
Level 14
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Action picked up on the river in a hand between Yukako Hiroi in the hijack and Chris Moorman on the button. With about 120,000 in the middle and the board reading J♦6♥8♦3♣K♥, Moorman moved all in for 78,000, prompting Hiroi to go into the tank.
After taking some time to think through her decision, she eventually made the hero call with A♦Q♣. Moorman was about to get out of his seat when he heard the call, but sat right back down when he saw that his A♥3♥ was best with a pair of treys.
Another player at the table jokingly said, "Nice value bet," prompting Moorman to respond, "Genius," in jest.
