Russell Opens Light, Pays the Price

Charles "Woody" Moore aces pay off.

From under the gun James Russell opened to 125,000 and action folded around to Charles Moore in the big blind. Moore moved in his last 470,000 into the pot and Russell called with very little thought.

Moore: {A-Clubs} {A-Diamonds}
Russell: {K-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds}

The flop was scary for Moore when it fell {3-Diamonds} {9-Hearts} {Q-Spades}, giving Russell a gutshot straight draw. The turn was a brick when it fell {5-Spades} and Russell whiffed again when the river came {8-Diamonds}. Moore finally has chips to play with, he's been at the bottom of the leaderboard since last night.
