Straight Flush at the Right Time
Just two hands after the table saw Benjamin Hu make quads against Nan Min’s queens-full, another clash of big hands was in store.
Christian Wolfe raised to 6,000 from under the gun and Jean-Daniel Champod made it 22,000 from the cutoff. Wolfe called.
The flop came 9♣8♠10♣ and Wolfe checked. After Champod bet, Wolfe jammed and got insta-called.
Christian Wolfe: K♣Q♣
Jean-Daniel Champod: J♥J♦
Wolfe had two over cards, a gutshot, and a flush draw, while Champod was ahead with a pair of jacks and had an open-ender to boot.
The turn was the 9♠, taking away one of Wolfe’s outs.
The dealer dealt out the most dramatic card possible on the river, the J♣, which made Champod a full house, but gave Wolfe a king-high straight flush to survive the all-in and double-up.
