"I Showed Him What a Straight Looks Like"

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

After a player opened for 7,000, Jake Baumgartner shoved for around 35,000 from the cutoff. Jay VanStee then moved all in over the top from the big blind and the original raiser folded.

VanStee: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
Baumgartner: {a-Hearts}{8-Clubs}

It was a bad spot for Baumgartner, but he picked up some chop outs on the {9-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{10-Spades} flop. The {J-Hearts} turn gave him some added straight outs, and wouldn't you know it, the {7-Hearts} completed the said straight.

"Are you f***ing kidding me?" VanStee lamented.

A happy Baumgartner stacked his chips and confirmed the preflop action before concluding, "and I showed him what a straight looks like."
