Hand #47: Kirk Morrison Eliminated in 5th Place ($168,924)

Dec 8, 2010

John Racener raises from the cutoff to 255,000, Kirk Morrison calls from the button, and Andrew Robl calls from the small blind. The flop comes [Ah10h5c], Robl and Racener both check, Morrison bets 225,000, and Robl raises to 550,000. Racener folds, and Morrison calls.

The turn card is the [9s], and Robl thinks for a few moments and says, "I’m all in." Morrison calls with [AsJh] (pair of aces), but Robl turns over [5d5s] for a set of fives. Morrison is drawing dead. (The meaningless river card pairs the board with the [10s], giving Robl a full house, fives full of tens.)

Andrew Robl wins the pot as Kirk Morrison is eliminated in fifth place, earning $168,924.

As Morrison reaches his friends on the rail, he jokingly yells, "Rebuy!"
