Archeny Values a Straight to Extend his Lead
Level 35
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
The action was picked up on a board of 10♦8♥9♣7♠Q♣ after Matthieu Rigolot checked from under the gun and Lucas Archeny in the hijack overbet to 1,875,000, twice the size of the pot.
Rigolot went deep into the tank and eventually made the call, only to run into Archeny's straight with K♠J♠.
This pot propelled Archeny to a massive 15,100,000. Timothee D'Anfray at another table holds a similar stack after hitting a flush with ace-queen against ace-queen.
