Guyon Lays Down a Straight to Ruggeri
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Umberto Ruggeri raised to 35,000 in the cutoff with A♠K♥ and Adrien Guyon defended 9♣5♠.
Both players checked the J♠6♥8♣ flop, while Guyon led out for 55,000 on the 10♦ turn. Ruggeri called.
The Q♦ river improved both players to a straight, but Ruggeri was ahead with his nut straight as Guyon checked over to him. Ruggeri then moved all in for 315,000 and Guyon gave it some thought before laying his hand down.
