Three World Poker Tour final tables, all scheduled to be played out in Las Vegas earlier this year but postponed due to COVID-19, will come to a conclusion. The LA Poker Classic, which. Coverage of the poker series 2014 L.A. Poker Classic (WPT), including results, chip counts, poker videos, and photos.
The chip leader heading into the final table is Michael Rocco with 5,615,000 in chips, about 35 percent of the chips in play. Second in chips is British poker pro Chris “Moorman1” Moorman with 3,190,000.
Moorman is the winningest tournament player in online tournament history, having become the first player to exceed $10 million in tournament earnings on the internet late last year. He has over $2.8 million in live tournament earnings as well, but is still missing a marquee win on one of the major live tours. With his experience and more than 100 big-blind stack, he is a threat to change that at this final table.
The televised final table of six was set with the elimination of Dan O’Brien in seventh place. Glenn Lafaye raised to 65,000 from the hijack, Michael Rocco called on the button and O’Brien three-bet to 250,000 from the big blind. Only Rocco made the call.
The flop brought the 1098 and O’Brien check called 175,000 from Rocco. The turn brought the K and O’Brien checked to Rocco, who fired 400,000. O’Brien tanked for a few minutes, and Rocco eventually called the clock. With time running out, O’Brien moved all-in for around 1.6 million and Rocco snap-called with the KQ.
O’Brien had the best hand at the moment with the AA, but Rocco had a lot of outs. The 6 on the river was one of them, and when that fell it secured the pot for Rocco and sent O’Brien to the rail as the final table bubble boy. For his deep run O’Brien earned $137,900.
