Moron Makes a Mistake

Connor Richards

Level 11 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Ignacio Moron and Charles Hook played a sizable blind-versus-blind pot that required intervention from the tournament floor.

Getting to the river on a board of 9?3?J?6?4?, Moron bet around 300,000 with a single 5,000-chip behind before Hook pushed all in with a slightly bigger stack.

Without realizing there had been a raise, Moron tabled 9?3? before Hook showed J?4? for a better two pair. Moron explained that he didn't realize there had been a raise, while Hook was adamant Moron should have to surrender his final 5,000.

The floor ruled that Moron had accepted Hook's action by tabling his hand, resulting in a marginally larger pot behind shipped to Hook and Moron being sent to the rail.
