Finger of Fate

Martin Finger

Martin Finger has rocketed up to the top of the pack after he won a substantial pot on the river in a three way fight against Chris Moorman and Bernard Samaha.

The board was reading and it had been checked to Samaha who'd bet 8,700 on the river into a pot of nearly 20,000. Finger dwelt up and then made the call and it looked for a moment as if Moorman might make the overcall but instead he released his hand.

Samaha sighed unhappily and, slightly frustrated, showed for the missed double gutshot and straight flush draw, but perhaps it was a blessing as Finger showed having a lot of Samaha's outs covered.

Finger is up to 105,000, Moorman is on 36,000 while Samaha dropped to 12,500.
