Andre Moracchini is back pushing around his chips early in the game. He did win a hand but lost a sizable one to the chip leader Neil Raine.
On the first hand, Moracchini was up against Go Mori. A raised pot of around 9k was swimming in the middle with bot players faced with a flop of A♠ 4♥ Q♣. On the bb seat, Mori bet 7k and Moracchini replied with a 22.7k raise on the button. Mori folded.
The next hand, Neil Raine was in the pot against Moracchini and both stared down a J♥ 3♦ J♦ board. Moracchini bet out 10.5k and Raine check-called. On the 3♣ turn, action was the same with Raine check-calling a lowered 10k bet by Moracchini, then on the 7♥ river, Raine took the lead and slid out 11 yellows totaling to 55k. Moracchini called then mucked after seeing Raine’s J♠ 8♥ full house.
Raine goes up to 360k
Moracchini drops to 90k
