Rigaill Doubles Through Morin

Mickey Doft

Jean Marc Rigaill opened the action with a raise and Gabriel Morin three-bet to 3,000 from middle position. The player in the hijack seat called, as did Rigaill, to land a {K-Spades} {Q-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} flop to the board.

First to act, Rigaill fired 11,500, a bit more than the size of the pot. Morin took about 20 seconds before popping it to 30,000, forcing the hijack seat out. Rigaill re-raised all in for 46,200 and Morin quickly called.

Rigaill: {A-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds}
Morin: {8-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds}

Morin's timing was off as his flush draw was demolished by Rigaill's top pair and flush draw. The {A-Hearts} turn locked up the pot for Rigaill, making the {9-Spades} river irrelevant.
