Brandt Rivers a Straight to Stay In It
Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Action was picked up on the flop with roughly 90,000 in the pot and the board showing 8♠3♥10♥. Katherine Brandt was all in for her stack of 200,000, and Naoya Morozumi called to put her at risk.
Katherine Brandt: J♠J♦ 
Naoya Morozumi: 10♦9♥
Brandt was ahead with her over pair against the top pair of Morozumi, but the 9♦ on the turn gave Morozumi two pair and the lead. However that lead did not last long as the river brought the Q♦ to give Brandt a straight and the double up.
