Fernando Morhy Successfully Multi-Tabling

[user339870]

Nível 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Fernando Morhy is nursing a short stack in this tournament at the moment, but he has been multi-tabling for most of the day, and rather successfully. Moments ago, he won the $200 buy-in pot-limit Omaha side event for just under $3,000, and now he's taken his seat in this tournament once more to try to run up a stack before players bag chips for the evening at the conclusion of the next level.

MrCleverFox

Nível 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

After two limps, Pedro Betancor raised to 3,400 from the cutoff. He was called by the player on the button as well as Julio Belluscio who had limped into the pot.

The three players saw a flop of where action checked around to the button who bet 5,000. Bellucio called the bet before Betancor moved all in for 11,400 more. The player on the button folded. Belluscio thought for a long time, nearly two minutes. He picked up and looked at his cards several times, even flicked them a few times, before he finally let his hand go and allowed Betancor to take down the pot without showdown.
