Prescott & Russell Straighten Out Each Other
Level 4
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Mark Prescott opened to 1,100 on the button and Matthew Russell defended in the big blind.
Russell checked on the flop of 6♥2♦5♥ and Prescott checked back. Russell then bet 1,300 on the 3♠ turn and Prescott called.
Russell sized up to 2,300 on the 2♣ river and Prescott quickly raised to 6,000. Russell nearly tabled his hand as he didn't realize his opponent had raised.
"I have to see it," Russell said before calling.
Prescott tabled A♥4♠ for a straight, but Russell has the same straight with 8♠4♣ as the two chopped the pot.
