Favor Stands Firm with His Straight

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

A player under the gun opened to 2,400 and four players called, including Michael Favor in the hijack. The dealer fanned out {j-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{9-Clubs} on the flop and action checked to the initial raiser who bet 2,000.

Favor and one other player called to see the {q-Hearts} turn card. All three checked to the {q-Clubs} river where the pre-flop raiser bet 11,000 and Favor was the only player to call.

Favor turned over {8-Clubs}{4-Clubs} for a turned straight and it was more than enough as his opponent showed {10-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} for just two pair, sending the pot to Favor and his straight.
