Luhm Wins Biggest Pot of the Night So Far
There was around 20,500 in the middle on a board reading with action heads up between Stuart Luhm in the big blind and Shelly Morrill, who was on the button. Luhm checked to Morrill, who put out a bet of 12,000. Luhm went into the tank for over a half-minute.
"All in," he said softly. Morrill took about three seconds before announcing a call.
Stuart Luhm:
Shelly Morrill:
Luhm had top two pair with the nut flush draw and was poised to deliver a chilling cooler to Morrill for a pot that would end up being greater than 200,000 as long as he could fade the last two fives in the deck. The river fell to earn him the double and he pushed his stack forward to be counted. It was totaled to be 93,300 and Morrill paid it off, taking her under a six-figure stack despite being solidly above average. On the other hand, Luhm has likely taken over the chip lead with a monstrous stack of 210,200.
