Moorman Goes Runner-Runner to Double Through Kursevich
JC Alvarado opened the action for 15,000 from the cutoff, which brought a three-bet to 36,000 by Chris Moorman in the small blind. Vadzim Kursevich, who won the EPT Deauville Main Event back in February, then made it 73,000 to go from the big blind, Alvarado folded, and Moorman shipped for approximately 250,000. Kursevich made the call and the cards were turned up:

| Kursevich |   |
| Moorman |   |
Moorman was racing for his tournament life, but he was the one who needed to improve. The 
flop provided no help, but the 
turn and 
river did as it gave him a runner-runner straight and the win.
