Level 13 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

The small blind raised to 13,000 and Joey Weissman defended his big blind.

The flop came 10♦3♠9♣ and the small blind was quick to check. Weissman fired for 16,000 and received a call from the small blind.

While the J♣ peeled off on the turn, both players were quick to check.

The K♦ peeled off on the river and the small blind jammed all in. Weissman made an instant call as he revealed Q♦6♦ for a straight to best his opponent's 8♥8♣. His opponent was sent to the rail as Weissman took the pot.
