Clinkscales Straightens One Out

Action folded to Rex Clinkscales who limped from the hijack, as did Chris Tryba from the button. The small blind joined the party, the big blind checked, and the four players saw a {9-Hearts}{7-Spades}{2-Diamonds} flop.

A check from the player in the small blind led to a bet of 350 from the player in the big blind. Only Clinkscales called to see the {Q-Hearts} turn which both players quickly checked. The {5-Hearts} landed on the river and the player in the big blind bet 650. Clinkscales popped it to 2,100, his opponent called, and Clinkscales tabled {8-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for a straight.

His opponent mucked, giving the pot to Clinkscales.
