Moreno Riding the Pyne

Erik Hellman opened in late position, Michael Moreno three-bet jammed on his direct left, and Richard Pyne re-shoved from the small blind. Hellman released, and the hands were opened.
Moreno:
Pyne:
"Ace!" Moreno exclaimed as the dealer rapped the table.
The flop brought backdoor flush and straight draws for Moreno, but the
on the turn crushed those dreams immediately. The
on the river ended his 2012 Main Event, and he was off to the cage to collect his prize money.
Pyne, who is sporting a shirt with his two kids on it, is now nearing 2 million chips.
