Moore Takes One from Le 2 years ago

Nam Le raises to $240,000 and Charles Moore re-raises to $600,000 in the small blind. Action folds back to Le, who makes the call and as we go to the flop, Moore checks in the dark. The flop comes Td 9h 4c and Le bets out $400,000. Moore raises to $1 million flat and Le ruminates for a few minutes before faking a fold. The crowd erupts in cheers and Le hangs onto his cards, leading the crowd to laugh as they realize their mistake while the Bapesta keeps a straight face. After a few more minutes, Le folds out and Moore takes down the pot, for real this time.

The blinds are on their way up, with the price of poker now $60,000/$120,000 with a $20,000 ante.

Do Doubles Through Montgomery 2 years ago

Scott Montgomery raises to $300,00 and Quinn Do moves all-in over the top all-in for about $1 million more. Action folds back to Montgomery, who tanks for a few minutes before announcing, "I don't want to call, but I'm not going to fold." He calls and shows Ad 5h, which surprisingly puts him ahead of Do's Qs Jh.

The flop comes Qc 9d 7h and the pro-Do contingent goes wild. The turn is the 9s and the river the Td and Do doubles through Montgomery to over $2.6 million.

Moore Dinties Hellmuth! (Sixth) 2 years ago

Phil Hellmuth open-shoves all-in from the cut-off and Charles Moore makes the call in the small blind, turning up Ah Qh to Hellmuth's Ad 9s. The Poker Brat is way behind and will need help to avoid being the first person eliminated at this final table.

The flop Ac Js 2h and though the crowd begs the dealer for a nine, Hellmuth remains behind. The turn is the 7c and the river the Qc and the Poker Brat has been eliminated in sixth place. The Poker Brat shakes everyone's hand and exits to collect his $229,820 while muttering something profane about Nam Le.
