Munoz Calls Her Shot and Gets Rivered
Ellianne Munoz had just been telling PokerNews that it was time for her to double up. She went as far as saying that someone was going to try to bully her big blind and she would wake up with a hand and punish them.
Sure enough, Ninos Awraham obliged and opened in early position. When it came to Munoz in the big blind, she did shove and perhaps Awraham thought he was either too short to fold or that Munoz was just putting on a show, as he made the call.
Ninos Awraham: A?10?
Ellianne Munoz: 10?10?
Munoz's prophecy seemed to be coming true, as she was in excellent shape before the flop brought K?9?K?. Awraham then had a flush draw to go with his over card, but Munoz seemed confident when the 4? peeled the turn.
The dealer put the 7? up on the river and Munoz could hardly believe it when she was forced to double up her opponent. She was even more let down that a player out of the hand had called the clock on her preflop, despite her not taking too long with her action.
