Runner-Runner Straight for Steicke

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

When you have chips to burn you can afford to speculate with some less-than-stellar cards. That appeared to be David Steicke's strategy after Inwook Choi opened to 22,000. Steicke was in the big blind and called the extra 12,000 to a flop of {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

{J-Diamonds}

{J-Hearts}

. Both players checked, with Steicke then betting 24,000 on the {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

turn. Choi called.

Both players checked the {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

river. Steicke showed down {10-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

{6-Diamonds}

, having rivered a Broadway straight. It was good enough to take down the pot.
