Moure Triples Against Aces; Hall Folds Kings Preflop
PokerNews was waved over as a huge hand was unfolding:
After an open to 12,000 from the player in middle position, Jose Moure moved all in for 62,000 and Kalidou Sow made the call. Then Zachary Hall re-raised to 175,000 and the action folded back around to Sow who then back-raised all-in, covering Hall.
Hall then went into the tank for over a minute but eventually shook his head and folded K?K? face-up and the table let out a collective gasp.
The cards were then tabled, with Moure at risk.
Jose Moure: A?10?
Kalidou Sow: A?A?
"Wow!"
"What a fold!" several players around the table congratulated Hall on his stellar fold as the flop came out 8?6?Q? with Sow still in the lead.
Miraculously, the board ran out 9?J? to give Moure a straight on the river to stay alive with a big triple-up while Sow just shook his head.
