Xanthopoulos Flops a Straight But It's No Good
Niveau 30
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Pavlos Xanthopoulos opened 200,000 in the cutoff and Ioannis Oikonomidis defended the big blind.
The dealer fanned a flop of 9♦8♣7♠, and Oikonomidis check-called a bet of 150,000 from Xanthopoulos.
The Q♣ fell on the turn, and Oikonomidis checked once more before he was faced with a bet of 425,000. He made the call once again.
When the 6♥ landed on the river, Oikonomidis checked and Xanthopoulos took about 35 seconds before tossing in a bet of 400,000, and Oikonomidis snap-called.
Xanthopoulos tabled 6♣5♣, which was a flopped nine-high straight, but Oikonomidis rivered a ten-high straight with Q♥10♠.
