Moscati Finds a Sweet Board
Level 29
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Vincent Moscati had been ground down to just over 1,000,000 chips when he committed himself with a raise against David Hu, who had him well covered.
Vincent Moscati: A?K?9?8?
David Hu: 9?7?6?5?
Moscati was undoubtedly happy to see he was ahead and was blocking Hu's hand a bit when the dealer scrolled across 10?7?2?. Hu had a pair of sevens, but Moscati was looking at overcards and an open-ender.
The turn peeled the K?, putting Moscati back in the lead. His hand finished even better when the 10? fell on the river to give him a double-up.
