Better Straight for Bennett
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
This hand was picked up with approximately 25,000 in the middle on a complete board that read 9♥6♥10♣7♣8♣.
Scott Bennett shoved for his final 15,100 on the river from the hijack and was quickly called by Louis Lipps in the cutoff to be at risk.
With a straight on the board, both players already had a straight, but Bennett revealed he had the best straight possible when he showed Q♣J♣ for a queen-high straight. It was fortunate for him too, because Lipps showed a single J♦ to reveal he had a better straight than the board also.
