Finstein Takes From Banks

Level 19 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Kirk Banks opened for 12,000 and Michael Finstein made the call from the big blind. On the flop {9-Spades}{a-Hearts}{j-Clubs}, Finstein check-called Banks's continuation bet for 13,000.

On the {j-Hearts} turn, Finstein bet 10,000 and Banks called. The river brought a {3-Diamonds} and after Finstein checked, Banks fired 60,000. Finstein thought about it for a moment and ended up calling, showing {9-Hearts}{3-Spades}. Banks tabled {10-Clubs}{8-Hearts}, revealing he didn't hit his straight.
