Blouet Flops Nut Straight
Level 2
: Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Ram Faravash raised to 700 from early position and Raphael Blouet three-bet to 2,400 from the small blind. Faravash called and action went to the flop.
The flop came Q♦10♣J♠. Blouet continued for 1,500 and Farajash moved all in for around 5,000, which Blouet called.
Faravash turned over K♠10♠ for a pair and straight draw, while Blouet flipped A♥K♥ for the flopped nut straight.
The turn came the 4♣ and river the 9♥. Blouet held and Faravash was eliminated from the tournament early.
"It's too good to be true," said Blouet as he scooped the pot.
