Nakamura Rivers a Straight to More Than Double
Level 6
: Limits 1,500/3,000, 0 ante
Patrick Stacey raised and Tamon Nakamura three-bet for Sachin Ramrakhani to call, Stacey also stuck around. On the J♦9♦3♥ flop, it checked to Nakamura and his bet was called by both opponents. The same action repeated on the 4♠ turn and Stacey then bet the 2♦ river.
Nakamura raised all-in for 5,700 and Ramrakhani folded, while Stacey called with the A♣6♠4♣2♥. Nakamura tabled the A♦A♥5♣3♣ for a six-high straight and nut low to leap back into contention.
