Strauch Back Above the Average
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Yves Thalmann three-bet an open raise by Michael Strauch from 3,000 to 11,000 and the initial raiser stuck around. On the 
flop both players checked and Strauch then bet the 
turn for 15,000.
Thalmann claimed in table chat it was a difficult fold and let go to get shown the 
for the broadway straight, to which Thalmann responded he had pocket eights with a diamond.
