No Stress, Man

Johannes Strassmann may not be a very well-known player in the states but over in Europe he's known for his incredible consistency on the European Poker Tour, having finalled multiple events.

He's going well here, betting 1,875 on a {K-Spades} {4-Diamonds} {2-Hearts} {3-Hearts} board but finding himself being raised to 6,700. Strassmann made the call before the river {4-Spades} went check-check. Strassmann showed {K-Diamonds} {J-Spades} which was good enough as his opponent mucked.
