Of Course Bedell Has the Straight
Level 16
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Tom-Aksel Bedell raised to 100,000 in middle position and picked up three callers, including Vivian Saliba in the cutoff and Filip Lovric and Eran Carmi in the blinds.
All four players checked the J♦7♣4♦ flop. Carmi then bet 280,000 on the 8♣ turn and Bedell and Saliba both called.
The 4♠ river was checked down and Carmi showed J♥10♣8♠7♥ for two pair, but Bedell turned over 6♠5♣5♥2♦ for a straight.
"Somebody had it," Bedell said.
"Tom, I come by the table 10 times and all 10 times you win the pot. It's impossible," Martin Kabrhel said.
