Morgenstern Survives in Dramatic Fashion
Level 13
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Picking up the action after the flop, Micah Raskin in early position was involved in a hand with Anton Morgenstern in the big blind. With the board reading 5?4?7? Morgenstern was all in and at risk.
Anton Morgenstern: 4?4?
Micah Raskin: 7?7?
Raskin had Morgenstern on the ropes, needing running clubs or the case four to survive. The K? turn left Morgenstern drawing to a single out. With action finished at the two other tables, many players flocked around as the dealer flipped over the 4? to send Raskin leaping out of his seat in frustration while Morgenstern raked in the pot smiling sheepishly.
