Stefan Stacks Strauch With Straight
Level 13
: 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
No sooner had the dealer spread the 
flop on table 19, than Stefan Bielich and Sebastian Strauch were racing to get all of their chips over the line. Bielich beat Strauch into the pot, fast-rolling his 
for the nut straight with the backdoor nut flush draw. Strauch was miles behind with 
for top pair and a straight draw. He needed an ace for a chop or running cards for a full house.
The 
on the turn was a huge brick, with Bielich now unable to lose the pot. He was only required to dodge an ace, which he did as the 
river slapped the felt, dragging in the huge pot, worth almost double the 96,800 average stack with 190 players left.
