Can Sidhu Make a Straight Flush?
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
On the feature table, Kuljinder Sidhu raised to 5,000 from the cutoff, with just his 9♦ being scanned by the RFID reader.
Kevin Hasler, with 10♥7♠, came along from the big blind and made two pair on the 10♦7♦6♦ flop. With at least a straight flush draw, Sidhu bet 6,000 when checked to. Hasler just called, and the A♣ arrived on the turn.
Hasler check-called for 14,000, and checked for a third time when the 8♣ river completed the board. Sidhu, who had at least a straight, sized up to 28,000 and after some thought, Hasler called with the worst hand.
Sidhu's second card was revealed when he tabled his hand: A♠9♦.
