Afriat and Delfoco Make Straights
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Eric Afriat raised to 40,000 from the small blind and Francesco Delfoco defended his big blind.
Afriat then continued for 25,000 chips on the 8♦2♥9♦ board, which Delfoco called. Delfoco also called Afriat's 100,000 bet on the 7♠ turn before the 6♠ river completed the board.
Afriat put another 200,000 chips in the pot and a snap call followed from Delfoco. Afriat turned over Q♦10♦ for a rivered straight, while Delfoco wistfully showed his 6♦5♦ for a turned straight which got bested on the river.
