Ship it Away From Vivek

Vivek Rajkumar
Vivek Rajkumar
We joined a hand in progress on the flop as the dealer spread out {9-Diamonds} {2-Spades} {4-Hearts} on the board. Action was heads up and the first player checked. Vivek Rajkumar fired 1,400 at the pot, and his opponent didn't waste much time calling.

On the turn, the {5-Diamonds} drew another check from the unknown player. Rajkumar gathered another 3,200 chips and slid them into the pot, and his opponent was right there to match it once again.

Fifth street brought the {A-Diamonds} and another check. Rajkumar bet 10,000, and his opponent drew a big breath. He shook his head as if the river card had ruined his entire day, but he eventually made the call. Rajkumar tabled {5-Clubs} {5-Spades} for the set, but it was no good. His opponent turned over {3-Clubs} {3-Spades} for the surprise straight, plenty good enough to drag the pot and draw a curious look from Rajkumar. That loss slips him back to about 18,000.
