Leost Shows the Straight
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
The player in middle position raised to 2,000, Gabriel Leost flatted in the hijack, and Arash Asadabadi three-bet to 9,000 on the button. Claude Murrell cold-called in the big blind, middle position folded, and Gabriel Leost stuck around.
The flop came 8♦Q♥9♠, Murrell checked, Leost bet 4,000, Asadabadi called, as did Murrell.
Action slowed down on the 10♦ where all three players checked to the 4♥ river. It checked to Leost who fired out a bet of 20,000, resulting in folds from both of his opponents.
Leost showed A♠J♠ for the straight as he dragged in the pot.
