Gieles Flopped a Straight

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

Luuk Gieles was seen sitting with a stack worth double what all players started the day with. Upon being asked how that came to be, he smirked "Do I have to tell you?"

Gieles explained he had opened with {7-Hearts}{5-Hearts} and was three-bet by a player on his left. Gieles called and flopped the nuts on {8-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}. Gieles check-raised the 1,300-continuation bet to 3,800 and his opponent called.

The {J-Clubs} on the turn made Gieles bet 6,500 and his opponent shoved for 21,000. Gieles called and had his opponent with {Q-}{Q-} drawing dead. The river was of no importance and Gieles doubled his stack while his opponent hit the rail.
