Francort Shows Down a Straight
Level 24
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Christian Stoyanov opened to 42,000 from under the gun and Javier Francort defended from the big blind.
Both players checked the flop, turn and river on a board of J♥8♠7♣7♥5♥.
"Straight" Francort said.
"Really?" Stoyanov replied, clearly surprised.
Francort tabled K♣9♥6♠5♠ for a rivered nine-high straight and Stoyanov's hand hit the muck.
