Cortada Paid for Rivered Straight
Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Action was on the flop on a board of 8♥7♣8♦ and Kestutis Jungevicius checked from the big blind. Manuel Cortada bet 60,000 from the cutoff and Jungevicius check-raised to 125,000, which Cortada called.
On the 5♣ turn, Jungevicius led out for 135,000 and Cortada called. The river came the J♣ and Jungevicius checked. Cortada bet 250,000 and Jungevicius went into the tank before making the call.
Cortada flipped over 10♥9♠ for a rivered straight, while Jungevicius mucked to give him the pot.
