Manuka Eliminated by an Unwanted Straight
Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Perparim Manuka shoved for 17,000 from the hijack, then everybody folded to Andreas Irchner in the big blind who seemed to have no choice but to call. But he was quite unhappy to do so, as he also had a short stack.
Perparim Manuka: Q♣J♣ 
Andreas Irchner: 6♠5♦
Manuka flopped top pair on the 4♦7♠J♦ flop, but Irchner found a straight draw at the same time. The draw was completed thanks to the turn 8♠, leading to Manuka's elimination after the river 8♣.
