Tanaka Way Ahead but Moscati Finds a Lucky Duck
Nível 30
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
A short-stacked Vincent Moscati was isolated by Yusuke Tanaka and both were ready to run five cards.
Vincent Moscati: K♠10♦9♠2♦
Yusuke Tanaka: K♦K♣9♥8♥
Tanaka had far and away the best hand with a pair of kings and a blocker to his opponent's nine. The flop seemed innocuous, spreading J♦2♣7♠, but when the 2♠ flipped off the deck, Moscati improved to trip deuces and left Tanaka looking for the last king.
The river bricked the 7♥ and Moscati's rail cheered him on as they all celebrated the duck that came on the turn.
