Ewing Turns a Straight and gets Paid
Niveau 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Action folded to the button who limped in for 600. The small blind called, Eric Ewing checked in the big blind, and the players went three-way to a flop of K♠8♣7♠.
The flop was checked around to the player on the button who bet 1,300. The small blind folded and Ewing made the call.
The J♦ turn was once again checked to the button who bet again, this time for 3,300. Ewing check-raised to 10,300. His opponent asked how much he had left before going all in. Ewing immediately called and was at risk.
Eric Ewing: 10♣9♠
Button: K♦J♥
Both players had improved on the turn but Ewing was well ahead with his straight against his opponent's two-pair. The river changed nothing for either player and Ewing collected a sizeable pot.
