Palma Folds a Straight
Level 20
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Adrian Mateos limped in from the small blind and Nicholas Palma checked his option in the big blind.
The K♦Q♣J♣ flop checked through to the 10♥ turn. Mateos bet 120,000 and Palma called.
The 7♣ completed the board, and Mateos sized up to 300,000. Palma let go of his 9♦6♥, and it was the correct decision as Mateos had Broadway with A♥2♥.
