Dec 20, 2023
Carl Shaw opens to 1,600,000 from UTG with 
and Chris Moorman defends from the big blind with 
. The flop comes out gin for Moorman as he makes two pair and he checks over to Shaw who bets 2,000,000. Moorman then puts in a check-raise to 5,200,000 and after some thought, Shaw puts in calling chips.
On the turn 
, Moorman leads for 5,400,000 and Shaw again calls, drawing only to a nine.
The river is the brick 
and Moorman pulls the trigger by moving all in for 9,900,000. Shaw thinks hard about this one, using one of his time banks, and ultimately makes the right decision by letting it go and Moorman is awarded the pot for a nice pickup.
The very next hand, Carl Shaw moves all in for his remaining 13,500,000 with 
and is called by Jason Min with 
to put him at risk.
The board runs out 
to give Shaw an ace on the flop to win the pot for a double to bounce right back.
Chris Moorman – 35,500,000 (44 bb)
Carl Shaw – 28,000,000 (35 bb)
Jason Min – 39,000,000 (49 bb)
