Niveau 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Cory Skolnik was all in for around 450,000 from the cutoff against Yang Lu in the big blind.
Cory Skolnik: 10♣10♦
Yang Lu: K♦K♠
Skolnik had the worse pair and not much changed on the 8♣5♣6♠ flop. The 7♣ turn gave Skolnik additional outs with a gutshot and flush draw, and the 9♥ river brought screams from the table as it gave Skolnik the unlikely straight.
