Costigan Flops a Straight to Double
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
David Golin limped on the button, Harrison Dobin completed from the small blind, and Frank Costigan checked his option in the big blind.
On the 9♦8♣7♠ flop, it checked to Golin who bet 50,000. Dobin got out of the way before Costigan check-jammed for his 295,000 remaining stack. Golin took some time to cut out the exact all in amount before sliding the chips into the middle to call as the covering stack.
Frank Costigan: 10♣6♦
David Golin: J♣9♥
Costigan flopped the second nut straight against the top pair and gutter of Golin, who needed to find a ten. However, the 3♦6♠ runout left Costigan's straight best, and he collected the full double.
