Nygard Shows Nuts
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Magnus Eidshaug raised to 1,600 in the cutoff. Wegard Nygard three-bet to 4,000 on the button, and Eidshaug called once the action folded back to him. Nygard continued for 6,500 on the 5♥9♦7♦ flop, seeing Eidshaug check-call.
Both players checked the 3♥ turn, leading to the 6♠ river. Eidshaug checked for a third time, after which Nygard piled in a big bet of 15,000.
Eidshaug took some time before he called, but he mucked his hand when Nygard showed 10♠8♥ for a rivered straight.
