Morrell Binks His Draw Twice

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante

Gerald Morrell got his last 32,300 in chips in from the big blind on a {7-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} flop, and was at risk against Marty Gorenc in the hijack.

Gerald Morrell: {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Marty Gorenc: {q-Hearts}{j-Spades}

Gorenc's top pair needed to fade a bunch of outs from Morrell's straight and flush draws to hold on, but the {8-Spades} turn filled Morrell's straight. Gorenc could chop the pot with a nine on the river, but the {2-Diamonds} actually improved Morrell further to a flush and earned him the double.
