Strasse Doubles Through Kuney

Level 24 : 15,000/30,000, 0 ante

Florian Strasse opened to 65,000 on the hijack, Michael Kuney three-bet to 225,000 on the small blind, and Strasser made the call.

Kuney continued for 300,000 on a {q-Spades}{8-Hearts}{q-Hearts} flop, enough to put Strasse at risk if he called, which he did.

Florian Strasse: {a-Spades}{j-Spades}{10-Spades}{9-Hearts}
Michael Kuney: {a-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}

The runout finished {7-Clubs} and {9-Clubs}, giving Strasse the win with his {j-Spades}{10-Spades} for the straight.

Level 24 : 15,000/30,000, 0 ante
Florian Strasser
Florian Strasser

Florian Strasser has spun up a ten big blind stack to over the 2 million mark, giving him nearly 70 big blinds to work with.

Strasser got up to that total in a hand that saw Ka Lau open to 75,000 from the button, and Starsser three-bet to 260,000 from the small blind.

Lau made the call, bringing {8-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{3-Clubs} on the flop. Strasser continued for 500,000 more, and Lau folded.
