That Makes Sense
Roman Valerstein opened to 400 from the cutoff, and the action folded to a player in the big blind who defended. Both players knuckled after the flop fell 
, and the player in the big blind checked again after the 
turned. Valerstein fired 575, and his opponent check-raised to 1,250. Valerstein called.
The 
completed the board, and the player in the big blind led for 2.275.
"That doesn't make sense," Valerstein muttered to himself.
He tanked for a few more seconds then called. His opponent tabled 
for the wheel.
"Straight?" Valerstein asked. "Ok, that makes sense."
