Moreschi Bailed Out on the River
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Caleb Furth opened to 45,000 from the hijack, Stephen Moreschi raised to 160,000 from the cutoff and Daniel Lowery three-bet to 560,000 rom the small blind. Furth folded while Moreschi called, committing the majority of his stack in the process.
The flop came J?7?5? and the rest of Moreschi's chips quickly got in the middle.
Stephen Moreschi: A?K?8?2?
Daniel Lowery: A?A?6?4?
Moreschi was in rough shape against Lowery's aces but the 3? turn gave him the nut-low to keep his tournament hopes alive. The 4? river changed nothing and Lowery took the other half with his seven-high straight.
