Straight On the Board but O'Connell Still Doubles
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
The hijack opened to 800 before the cutoff three-bet. Drew O'Connell then jammed for 9,500 from the button and only the cutoff called.
Drew O'Connell: A♠Q♦
Cutoff: 10♦10♣
The 7♦6♦3♥ flop kept the pocket pair well ahead, while the 4♦ turn gave O'Connell the superior flush draw. The 5♦ river put a straight on the board but also gave O'Connell the flush to scoop the pot.
