Moreno Makes a Misclick

Calum_Grant

Nível 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

The cutoff opened to 800 before Andrew Moreno made it 7,000 from the button.

Some confusion followed as Moreno thought he had made it 2,100, thinking the black chips were worth 100 rather than 5,000.

It didn't matter as the cutoff folded.

Moreno noted that it is his first time playing here - so welcome to Golden Nugget Andrew!

Andrew Moreno opened to 1,000 and was called by the middle position player and the button.

Moreno checked the 6♠5♦3♠ flop, prompting his first opponent to fire out 1,800. The button called before Moreno clicked it to 5,200. The middle position player folded. The button then jammed as the big stack, and Moreno called off the 28,500 he had behind.

Andrew Moreno: A♠10♠
Button: 6♥5♥

Moreno had a flush draw while the button had top two pair. The Q♠ gave Moreno the lead and he avoided his opponent filling up as the board completed with the 2♥.
