Staszko Them to the Top

Phil Collins limped in from middle position, Ben Lamb completed from the small blind, and Martin Staszko checked his option from the big. The flop was {4-Spades}{10-Spades}{9-Hearts}, and Lamb led for 850,000. Martin called, Collins released, and the turn was the {a-Clubs}.

Lamb slowed down, checking to Staszko who fired 1.2 million. Lamb called.

The river was the {k-Hearts}, Lamb checked again, and Staszko knuckled behind. Lamb tabled {j-Clubs}{8-Clubs} for a missed straight draw, and Staszko opened up {k-Spades}{5-Spades} for a pair of kings, and shipped the pot.
