Rauhut Rivers Straight to Bust Chevalier
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Thomas Rauhut open-shoved from late position with a relatively short stack and was looked up by Pierre Chevalier in the big blind, who had him covered, as players flipped their cards.
Thomas Rauhut: A♣Q♦
Pierre Chevalier: A♦10♦
Rauhut had Chevalier dominated and not much changed as the flop was dealt J♣K♠3♠, with neither player holding a spade. The 8♥ turn was a blank and Rauhut was one card away from a double up.
The river, however, came the Q♣, which gave Rauhut a pair but completed Chevalier's straight.
"Oh, come on!" said Rauhut, before politely adding, "Pleasure playing with you all."
